It’s definitely worth visiting the seller and playing the guitar in person. Unless there’s something else hideously wrong with it that hasn’t been disclosed in the ad, that’s a very fair price, even if you ultimately decide to have it retopped.
Which might be worth considering, once you’ve recovered from the initial expenditure required for acquiring the guitar. If I had a crack at it, I’d do just that: send it back to Martin to have it retopped with red spruce and pre-war style scalloped bracing. You would be dramatically boosting the resale value if you did that. Just a thought... Wade Hampton Miller

I wonder if this is the same guitar? Price for the OP guitar was $3,500.00, this one $6,150.00. Both were listed on the Jacksonville Craigslist. Is someone trying to flip it?

No, they are different. That one has the original finish. I know of that seller. I spoke to this seller over the phone. He's willing to sell it for 3k pending my inspection. He's only my way because he is visiting his daughter at a nearby college so I have to decide pretty soon. Doubt I will be able to take it to a luthier before then. I'll probably pass on it but I sure would like to at least give it a look and play.

This is in my opinion a nice example of what may be possible for it if it needs a new top: https://applink.reverb.com/item/1085...pec-conversion
