Martin OMC-28 Lawrence Juber acoustic guitar with case  

We got this wonderful Martin guitar from the wife of the original buyer this week and this is a wonderful, one owner guitar in good condition. It does have a crack next to the soundhole and a few glue marks around the bridge where it was repaired by Martin on 2/13/2006. Overall though this guitar is in very good shape and in perfect playing condition. Serial number 1001889. The cheapest I have seen a used one of this model sell for is $5999.00 so even though it has thse flaws, our price should be extremely attractive.
