For Sale: 2013 Martin 00-21 GE Custom Shop

[pjmacd]

Hi, folks. For sale is a 2013 Martin 00-21 Golden Era made by the incomparable Martin Custom Shop. I am the original owner. It was purchased from Music Gallery, Inc. in Highland Park, IL. It is a wonderful guitar, but the body is just too small for me. Like many AGF denizens, I have too many guitars and need to thin the herd; thus, NO TRADES PLEASE. I originally paid over $4700 for this guitar, and I'm asking SOLD! ground shipped and insured in the continental US. Other shipping methods and locations are possible - please ask for a quote.

Here are the most important specs. I have a PDF copy of the Custom Shop spec sheet that includes all the specs, and will be happy to email a copy to anyone who is interested.

TOP: Adirondack Spruce
TOP BRACES: Adirondack/Scalloped 1/4''/Golden Era
BACK & SIDES: "Waterfall" Bubinga
TOP & BACK BINDING: Madagascar Rosewood
NECK: Genuine Mahogany- 12/4
NECK SHAPE: Mod V
HEADSTOCK: Slotted / Square Slots / 6 String
SCALE LENGTH: 24.9''
NUT: Bone
WIDTH AT NUT: 1 3/4''
FINISH TYPE: Gloss/Satin Neck
STRING SPACING: 2 5/16''
ELECTRONICS: K&K Pure Western Mini

Onward to the pics.

And here are a couple of things you need to know. My home is neither smoke-free nor pet-free. I haven't played this guitar much, and it has lived in its case for most of its life, so there should be little, if any, smoky smell about the guitar. I have a cat, so if you're allergic to cat dander, you might want to pass on this one. I will allow a 48-hour period after delivery for you to try out the guitar and see if it's right for you. If not, please return the guitar in the same condition in which it was shipped, and I will refund your purchase price. The buyer is responsible for return shipping costs. If you're in Northern Illinois or Southern Wisconsin, you are welcome to try it out in person. Acceptable forms of payments are cashier's check on a US bank, bank wire transfer, or PayPal (please add 3% for PayPal fees).

I know I've forgotten to say something important, so please ask lots of questions. I will be out of town June 1-4 but will keep checking here; jst be aware that I can't ship on those dates. Thanks for looking.

I have seen the spec sheet and the hi res pics, which PJ sent me. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AXE!!!

All three Bubinga guitars I have played (from top shelf builders) sounded awesome!!! Bet this is similar. Super tonewood.

I would gladly post the pics if I could, but I can not get anything up here out of my iPad.

If you are allergic, just vacuum the guitar! Sheesh

This is a nice one for sure.

Best on your sale, and have a great trip!

Cheers

Thanks, Paul. I just didn't want any potential buyer to get a nasty surprise after opening the case. I have had one nibble this morning...

I knew I forgot to mention something. The tuners are Waverlys.
