This is the guitar that started Martin Company's backpacker guitar. People have taken them to Mt Everest and on a Columbia space shuttle mission. Robert McNally designed and sold these guitars before Chris Martin from Martin Co. discovered him and they struck a deal to make this guitar, in Mexico. Martin Co has produced and continues to produce it today reaching over 300,000 made. McNally invented and made his backpacker in Pennsylvania.
This is # 951 of Robert McNally's guitar made in 3/98. 26 years old and in very good condition. No cracks, no fret or fingerboard wear at all. Quality one piece mahogany neck and body with a solid spruce top. Original tuners are precision mini Gotoh which hold tune properly, Faux Tortoise shell pick guard. These designs request the use of extra light gage strings and it comes with the original padded case. A real piece of history.
Will only ship inside USA.
