1938 Martin Guitar 000-28 Never Messed With.
 
Martin Guitar Vintage 1938 000-28 in great shape with Harptone hard case which
would be correct for the period &, I assume, original. The only replaced parts
are the tuning keys, replaced with correct footprint Martin open back Grovers
in the mid 70's. Familiar with this guitar since early 70's, only another person
& myself the owners since 72. Health issues force sale, please be kind & quick,
:o) video link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myvmBekN-HA Nice video gives
my name & phone number for contact. Only partial trades considered would be
Gibsons from 32-45 era in small bodied flat top models, ie, L & HG,and including
Kalamazoo & Montgomery Ward Carson J Robinson models, as well as big bodies J-35,
J-45, and Roy Smeck, or, a Guild M-30. Nice bolt action 22 Hornet, or pre-68
pickups or station wagons(including International Travelall) ONLY with the
Borg/Warner3 speed overdrive transmission would also be considered. If truly
interested,please make phone contact FIRST & establish your identity as I'll do
the same. I accept cash, USPS money orders, & bank wire transfers; I do NOT accept
paypal or deal with ebay anymore. Prefer personal pickup, but, will deliver
within a few hundred miles or overnight ship at an appropriate fee. $26,000.
Thanx

My, Oh My!

I love seeing those old Martins. Looks like it has some nice history.

Good luck with the sale.

Beautiful playing at the end of the video. The pre-war Martins were/are magic. Gorgeous sound.

$60,000 or so should do it guys. That's what it's worth....

The seller is asking a very fair price based on apparent condition IMO. I'd love to know what Marlin paid for that back in 1972! Nice price appreciation going on there I'm sure :) Best of luck with the sale....love to see these old originals come on the market from time to time.

Very, very cool...and nice casual presentation on the YouTube video.

brencat 12-27-2013 09:21 PM

Oh wow... that is some gorgeous sound!

That is what I wish all modern Martin rosewoods sounded like.

buddyhu 12-27-2013 11:34 PM

Oh my. That is sweet!

CoolerKing 12-28-2013 04:02 AM

That is a absolute steal at 26k I think. Good luck.

Thanx again for the nice comments, but, no calls as yet!??? My phone can occasionally act funky for first time callers from a different area code, if this has happened, by all means send me a message with your number & I'll call, just tell me good Eastern Time hours for you. Willin' to take half-down with monthly payments of at least $1K with guitar remaining with me 'til paid in full, of course.
