About This Listing

Vintage Martin GT-70 electric hollow body guitar. Dual Dearmond pickups with independent volume and tone controls. Three way pickup selector switch. Guitar plays and sounds great. Frets were leveled and dressed and guitar has been fully set up. Action measures 1.75mm at the 12th fret. The finish has lots of checking and the guitar has had some repairs. You can see at the 17th fret a piece of the rosewood fretboard was replaced as well as the fret itself. The paint has been touched up around the bass side of the neck pickup. It also looks like the bass side of the neck by the nut had a crack that was reglued. With the repairs it’s definitely more of a player’s piece. Priced accordingly. Comes with original hardshell case.

Product Overview

Martin GT-70 Burgundy

Only 453 Martin GT-70 specimens were manufactured during the model's short run. Martin got into the electric guitar game in earnest in 1961 and eventually realized it was smarter to focus on its legacy acoustic models in 1968. A few other solid body electric models followed later in the '70s and again in the '00s, but these remain novelties. 

The Martin GT-70 featured a semi-hollow Maple body and top with a Mahogany neck and Rosewood fingerboard. Two exposed DeArmond pickups provided the tone, while a Bigsby-type vibrato acted on strings with a 24.9" scale length. 

Due to their rarity and interesting provenance as a Martin electric guitar, the GT-70 and its double cutaway brother, the GT-75, are both sought after by niche collectors.
