No Longer Available – Martin 000-42 Steel String Guitar Natural, 2020

No Longer Available - Martin 000-42 Steel String Guitar Natural, 2020

Seen here is a Martin 000-42 built during 2020 in Nazareth PA, in very good, clean and original condition with minimal wear. It plays well, and is a beautiful instrument – nicely decorated but not overly so. It has been played, but apparently not extensively, and its already good sound will improve with use.

❌SOLD❌  Martin J-40 Jumbo Steel String Natural, 2005

Sometimes a guitar can surprise you. I picked up this Martin J-40 having handled a number of 000 guitars recently, and was taken aback by its depth and power. It sounds fantastic! The Martin J-40 appeared in 1990 as a reworking of the J-40 M introduced in 1985.

❌SOLD❌  Martin 000-42 Standard Series Steel String Guitar Natural

This is a beautiful Martin 000-42 Standard Series, a spectacular sounding instrument with just the right amount of inlay. The 000 body size was introduced in 1902 with a 12-fret, 24.9 inch scale length neck  and in 1934 gained the ‘new’ 14-fret neck.   The OM or Orchestra Model is based on this guitar, but with a 14-fret, 25.4 inch scale length neck. The ’42’ in the name refers to the Style 42 materials and inlay set, introduced in 1858, and discontinued in 1943.

❌ SOLD ❌ Martin J-40 Jumbo Steel String Acoustic Guitar

Here we have a brand new C. F. Martin J-40. The J-40 features a tight-waisted jumbo body shape, built from a Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood for the back and sides. Mahogany is used for the neck, and ebony for the bound fingerboard and bridge. This is one of the few new J-40s available anywhere, and given the world wide and industry wide impact the pandemic has had, they will continue to be hard to obtain.

❌SOLD❌  C. F. Martin 00018 Steel String Guitar, 2017

The very first C. F. Martin 00018 steel string guitar appeared in 1906 with a Maple body, then with Rosewood until 1917, and finally built using Mahogany for the body in small numbers until 1926, when 224 were sold. Annual production stayed in the mid-hundreds until 1972, when 650 were built. It has been in production since, with the exception of 1932 and 1933, when none were built. The C. F. Martin 00018 string guitar is closely related to the OM or Orchestra Model, introduced in 1930.

The Martin D28L is, as the name suggests, the left handed version of the classic D-28 that made its debut in 1931 and immediately became one of the benchmark steel string guitars. Built using the dreadnought ‘D’ body with ’28’ features, it pairs a Sitka Spruce top with Indian Rosewood for the sides, back, head plate and bridge. The neck is Mahogany with a 25.4 inch (645mm) scale length Ebony fingerboard and 1.7 (43.2mm) nut width.
