If I could list it as brand new I would. Recently bought. Mint condition. Excellent sounding and playability it top notch. I cannot justify keeping a guitar of this caliber that’s will not get the attention it needs. This was purchased from a high end dealer. Original owner.
Save the taxes and sticker price Of a new one and by this one.

Martin Guitars recently perfected a unique way of torrefying the top woods and braces of their guitars to achieve the sound of an aged and broken-in Martin. The Vintage Tone System (VTS) lets Martin age the woods to a specific age/time period without the typical change in color of the wood from the torrefaction process. A special vintage gloss finish is then hand-applied to give the guitar the coloring of a vintage instrument. Martin’s guitars with VTS tops not only look like vintage guitars, they also have that sought-after sound.
