Description

Pre War Martin 00-21 1926 – this is an amazing example of a Pre War, light weight big bodied Martin guitar.

The 00-Modell is Martins medium 0 size guitar. With its spruce top and the rosewood back and sides, this guitar is a stunning player – a versatile guitar!
The cool thing about this guitar is, that it already has the bracing for steelstrings. In 1925/26 Martin made the transition from gut to steelstring and changed the bracing patterns.
This Martin 00-21 has the complete scallopped x-bracing pattern for steelstrings.

It has a beautiful even well balanced tone and is an amazing example of a cool player guitar. The sound is bold, open and woody – all you desire.
Many country and rock stars of the 50s and 60s played such a guitar. It is the dream of all fingerstyle players. This one has all the vintage vibe you have ever dreamed about!

It is set up nicely with low action, straight neck and good frets. Perfectly playable.
It has been professionally restored and wonderfully brought back to life – it has received new tuners and a new bridge. The whole guitar has received a nice and fine shellac finish.

It comes with the original case.
