This is an awesome guitar! I rated it very good cosmetically because it has been played and has some very small dents from use, shown in the pictures From a few feet away, it is beautiful and shiny! What makes it awesome? It cuts through a gang of other acoustic guitars with ease. Strummed, it has a gorgeous rich Martin tone and it is loud and present. Beautiful clarity for finger style and just an all around great performer. Action is good and note the full height saddle. These resin cases are very durable and this one is in great shape. It was the church guitar so it had some years of regular use. I always lusted after the sweet sound so when they sold it I had to have it. It was a difficult decision to sell it so, make it yours and enjoy what makes Martin guitars so special.
