Welcome,


Here just in, a superb player from USA's finest.


Made mid 70's, a couple of years before Martin went South for a year or so.

(despite all the hype about 70's Martins even the not so great ones are still very very good guitars)


She was born before all that, hence you can be sure this is the real deal with no intonation issues and all original.


On opening the case, with the guitar perfectly in tune, and playing that first cowboy chord, you will immediately be greeted with an especially immense and experienced tone that surprisingly (to me, being cynical!) sounds exactly just as you would want your vintage Martin to sound - although it has to be said, many do not!


This guitar has been on a few tours of duty, so there is expected honest wear shown in the photo's provided


No restorations or repairs


The nitro lacquer has checked up real nice with just the right amount of wear to stay on the right side of interesting


Some scuffs on the top board, a few capo marks, its a worthy trade off to the lovely tone


There are no repairs, and no cracks or structural concerns


The hardware is all original


The action is very good and low for a vintage that hasn't had, and doesn't need, a neck reset


Being a pre-1985 model, the truss rod fitted is non adjustable



We supply this stager with an optional professional overhaul included within the asking price, or we can work to any preferences on the setup and originality


Ships with the factory blue Martin case which earned the 'Steal Me' nickname, for obvious reasons


Over to you for the next 50


Enjoy!
