Martin D-16RGT Guitar 2000-2001 Dreadnaught /Fishman Electronics

2000-2001 Martin Electric/ Acoustic Dreadnaught with Bonus*

*Included with your purchase is a hand crafted solid wood segmented pick bowl. One of a kind crafted by Brad Knight Haven at West Barnstable Wood Turnings on Cape Cod.

I'm not sure where to begin describing this beautiful instrument. Found locally at the studio of a fellow guitar guy it has been very well cared for and set up for a true player. Great action and a neck that invites your fingers to roam, smooth and slick. See the photos to note a few cosmetic marks. Check out the photos and see how beautiful the tonewoods are. The serial number indicates it was built around 2000 which means 24 years of maturing which might explain just how tight and dynamic it sounds. The installed Fishman replicates the original acoustic sound and tones so well. I had a great time playing through my Fender Acoustic 100 amp.and it sounded so good.It's very tough to find a "lifetime guitar" for around a $1000 I know that for sure but this is one that you should own for a lifetime and pass it along in your family. The case is in very good condition also.

Thanks for Looking! Russell

About Russell's Prime Gear: I am retired and enjoy finding and refurbishing acoustic guitars. I spend many hours on-line and visiting pawn shops seeking out what I call "Closet Queens". These are guitars that were purchased by someone and for what ever reason were never played much and ended up in the closet or under the bed. I get to own them and play them until they sell….that is fun!

Refurbishing: Every guitar that I offer is refurbished unless noted otherwise. I check and tighten all hardware and insure the electronics are OK. I polish and file the frets as needed. I clean and hydrate the fretboard. I clean and polish the guitar inside and out and install new premium strings. I check for playability and sound quality and make adjustments as needed. (I am not a luthier so I do not do any heavy lifting). I then take multiple clear and concise photos that show the overall condition of the guitar and write an accurate description of the details of the guitar. When you make a purchase I recheck the guitar. I pack the guitar securely insure it and ship it quickly with signature required. My goal is sell you a great guitar that will make you happy for years to come.  

Pricing: I don't resell pre-owned instruments to make a big profit, I do it because I love music and the instruments that make it. I price them fairly and make sure they are right when you get them. Send me your questions and if you want to FaceTime me that's a great way to hear and find out more about the guitar. Have a great day and keep the music flowing!.
