Acoustic Guitar Player's eternal longing brand "Martin". In its long history, musical instruments such as mandolin and banjo have been produced, and have produced a wonderful mandolin, which is similar to flat top guitars and a detailed mandolin that makes use of the details. This is "2-30S" made in 1938. The finest 2-30 announced in 1936 is the highest model of Martin's mandolin, which was produced only for a very short period of 1936 to 1942. Shaved spruce arch top, beautiful straight -grained figures maple side & back, maple neck, ebony fingerboard, body plate, tortoise shell, and head makeup boards are also tortoise shell head. Normally, 2-30 surrounds the body, fingerboard, and head with white cells, and the top has a sunbar strike color, but it is all unified to Tortoise Shell whether it is a special order specification. The fingerboard inlay is a sloted diamond inlay and is a fingerboard found in the Martin guitar. The paint is refinated all over, and is not a sunburst but a beautiful glossy feeling in the overall amber color. In addition, the neck is thin and in order, but the string height is low, the sound is not clogged and the performance is good, and there is no problem in use. In the 1940 Martin catalog, you can see that OO-42 was $ 125 and 2-30 was $ 135. The David Grisman & Tony Rice's famous board "TONE POEM" uses the same model made in 1936 and can hear the tone on "Wildwood Flower". It is not a loud volume like gibson, but has a delicate and beautiful tone. The 2-30 has only 93 pieces in total, and among them, this "2-30S" with special orders is definitely a very rare model.
