Martin Baritone Pete Seeger JSO! Singout 60th Anniversary Custom Artist Edition (6-string) #2!

Original owner purchased new from Stan Jay (RIP) at Mandolin Brothers on Staten Island, NY.

The guitar is in excellent condition with all paperwork. The only noticeable blemish is some very slight finish chipping where the fingerboard meets the neck. 

The JSO! has Martin's Grand Jumbo body style, built of solid woods. The top is built of Sitka spruce, East Indian rosewood on the back and sides, a genuine mahogany neck with unadorned black ebony fingerboard, and a polished East Indian rosewood headplate. The headplate includes the familiar gold C. F. Martin & Co. logo, as well as a banjo sketch drawn by Seeger and a replica of his signature inlaid in mother of pearl. The unique and distinctive triangular sound hole is surrounded by a black/white/black/white fine line rosette, and the top of the sound hole is encircled by bold herringbone purfling and grained ivoroid binding.

This guitar is finished with a polished gloss lacquer finish, with aging toner on the top to enhance the vintage style and are protected in Vintage Series Geib-style™ hardshell cases.

Each of the limited edition (120) custom guitars will be numbered in sequence with the edition's total number produced. This particular one is Number 2!(#1437242) is an incredible sounding Baritone (C to C) tuned guitar, with plush lined hard shell case.
