Just arrived, amazing sound, super light weight, rings like a bell. In near mint condition with a few small shirt button scuffs that should micro buff out.
From Martin
Understated looks, timeless tone. The warm tone of mahogany and spruce couple with resonant scalloped bracing under the hood for a sound that’s honest, authoritative, and clear. Vintage details include open-geared tuners and classic 18-style appointments pair with a modern, low profile neck for an old-soul sound. Available in full gloss, full satin with an aging toner top, or full satin with an amberburst top.
