Smile Luthier...

Hey Debbie

I messaged your seller on Reverb. He said the work was done by James Ralston, from Henderson Nev. And said he could not say enough good things about him. I looked him up on the web and he has a wonderful reputation. Does Martin restoration and repair.

I have been sorely tempted by this axe, but I too am in sell mode...

I hope this helps. Maybe a link to James R...?

Best on the sale!

Cheers

Paul

Wow Paul, thanks so much for the info. I've posted a link to the luthier that did the work on the guitar in my first post of the ad. I guess I can post it here too! So here's a link to James Ralston that changed the finish to a beautiful sunburst and changed the pick guard.

thanks,

Default Great Guitar

I have a newer version of this guitar; same specs, Gruhn model. It is a very responsive instrument and has been a joy to play. These 0000 or M bodies are very versatile and produce great balance and clarity. To quote Vince Gill, "they record like a million bucks."

Someone will love this guitar.

I would keep it but I bought a Martin om-18 authentic a few months ago and find myself playing that more and just want to reduce the number of guitars I have ideally to 3 acoustics but I'm not sure I'll get to that.

You are little bit out of my neighborhood Alex. That's too bad but someone in the U.S could be very happy with this guitar. I may just end up keeping it.

That's a looker and quite a deal. I bought a 2007 model from an AGF member about 4 years ago. It's become my favorite. Someone needs to give yours a good home.
