1889 Martin 0-28 Natural
Fully Original Condition including Coffin Case
Penciled Date on Top: 2/89
Original Ivory Friction Pegs
Ivory Binding on Body
Museum Grade
A very beautiful excellent condition/all original time capsule, ivory tuning pegs, miniscule herringbone purling, no cracks and its almost-new looking original coffin case. There is a bit of pickwear, just to let us know it's been played, and part of one latch on the case is missing, while the original label in the case that tells us the model number of the guitar is still there. All together, we have a fine museum quality and very playable instrument, and a wonderful study in the incredible artistry and craftsmanship of the Martin folks of the time.
Our "Cash price" policy: unfortunately, the credit card companies support "swiped" charges in which the card is physically run through the card reader. Phone-in charges are charged at a much higher rate (to the seller) which can take quite a big chunk out of a high-dollar sale. Thus, for those call-in sales, let's discuss the issue at the time; hopefully, we can figure some way to deal with it.
