Simply Stunning ! As we read in Martin history, the 21 style models first appeared in the late 19th century.

Martin released the D-21 (Dreadnought) in 1956. This Custom Ordered Martin has some of the construction and cosmetic feature of a 1937 D-21 if Martin had made one. Forward Shifted Adirondack bracing, 1 3/4 Nut width. Scalloped Bracing.

21 Stye: Diamond & Square (long pattern) fingerboard inlays, Herringbone Rosette, Tortoise style binding.

With added Premium Italian Alpine Spruce Top and Madagascar Rosewood Back & Sides.

Extremely Clean Condition, super action after a recent expert neck reset. A dream to play, has a fabulous sound and feel. A Winner!
