Grab a piece of history!

This is a 1927 Brazilian and Adirondack 0-45 in good condition. There were a total of 158 of these made from 1904-1930 and only 42 were made in 1927, which is also the first year Martin started bracing for steel strings. The neck has been refinished & reset, and the body has some overspray. It has a repaired back center seam separation, and two replaced fingerboard inlays. The peghead joint was loose and re-glued. It has the original tuners and frets, but the bridge was replaced with a correct one from Martin. The guitar also appears to have the original nut. Possibly a replaced pickguard, but we're not certain. Plenty of pick wear and dings, but no major cracks or structural damage. The original hardshell case is in good condition, with a replaced handle. It's been strung with Silk & Bronze strings, and sounds unbelievable!

We have CITES export certification for shipping rosewood, including Brazilian, so our customers outside the US can shop with confidence!
