An Important Vintage Twelve-Fret Martin
Straight Grain Quartersawn Brazilian Rosewood
Thick, Deep, Rich Tone
Fully Original
Great Player

Here is a fabulous 12-fret Martin with perfect quartered, straight grain Brazilian rosewood and Adirondack spruce. It hasn't been babied, but is really in fine condition, with a few dings and pickwear and one, possibly two minor hairlines in the back. It has incredible tone with a surprisingly strong bass, fine action with plenty of saddle, bar frets that have been leveled and all its original parts. By 1932, Martins were made a bit more robust, and they give a stronger, more powerful, more modern tone which is prized by many players over the more delicate qualities of the lighter bodies of up to the very beginning of 1931.
