1990 Martin M-36 sn. 495269rosewood sides and 3 piece rosewood back, bound ebony fingerboard, rosewood bridge.Having received a gift of a small inheritance from my mother I thought I'd get something that would be normally beyond my reach and that I'd cherish over time.

I had Martin refret and refurbish the guitar and they did the best set up. I just wished it were one size smaller and with a v shaped wider neck... Oh! that would be the 000EC. The late great luthier John Zeidler installed the Fishman gold-plus pick-up in it... Click on the small M36 to get to it's sale page.
