Condition:
At some point in this ukulele's past, it appears there it was stored improperly and affected the finishing which, although original, does have some alligatoring. Other than that and a few nicks and such, the finish is quite nice
The interior brand is present and contains "Made in the USA" dating it post 1962
Martin Logo on Headstock is picture perfect with Gold Lettering & Black OutlineVisual inspection: No cracks or warping are present, braces are secure the neck is straight. No signs of previous repair.
Tapping Inspection: instrument resonates nicely and evenly with no sharp noises from lose braces present.
Minor scratches and scuffs as you'd expect with an instrument that has seen some action but, nothing major like severe gauges or dents.
Playability:
As you'd expect, a nice vibrant tone that resonates nicely.
Near perfect action with G String action measuring between 2.5-2.75mm & the A string at 2.75mm (both at the 12th fret from the top of the fret to the bottom of the string). Depending upon your personal playing style it may benefit from a professional set-up. But for me the instrument is playing just as you'd expect a classic Martin Ukulele to perform: a warm responsive, round sound that is bright and clear.
Suitable for professional player or dedicated passionate strummer/picker
About Curated Vintage Ukuleles & Instruments
I am a collector and dealer of vintage instruments with a particular focus on ukulele. On occasion other instruments come into my possession. I curate only fantastic examples of quality instruments from iconic makers. More than often, the original as found condition is what is presented here. I prefer slight wear to the finishes to authenticate that they are original. I do not like to have work done to my instruments unless necessary for playability or to stabilize a potential deteriorating condition. Unless noted, I haven't had these instruments touched in any way since they've been in my possession. I am always happy to meet serious buyers for you to play before you buy.
