I bought this from Sweetwater this year and it's in mint condition. No scratches or dings. Perfect low action setup. Tall saddle! Martin E1 electronics. Soft hybrid case No mods. They run $1089 new. you Will think this example is new, no doubt. It's been babied.
Mint. See photos.
Al solid wood. Spruce over Sapele. Long scale. 1.75" nut width. Comfortable easy playing neck. M&T neck joint. This is literally a spruce top D15. And it sounds amazing. Tonally, it definitely has that Martin tone.
Pronounced bass, and a scooped mid. It sounds a little darker than say a D-18.
Again, the one I'm selling has a super tall saddle; no neck resets for this guy. It’s one of the most important things I look at when buying any guitar.
I dont want to sell this. I love the guitar. But I listed it. I keep a one in one out rule, and another guitar has already come "in"
