Default Martin Om-45 Golden Era Brazilian WOW

Next up for sale is my Martin Om-45 Golden Era Brazilian. WOW!!
I think its the best Martin I have owned . Just look at the Brazilian on this one. I have seen several of these golden era guitars but non of them had Brazilian like this.These guitars don’t come up for sale often and I doubt it will last long. Another cool thing about this guitar is that It was used on the latest Al Petteway Cd The Collection. Al played it on the track called Tony’s Rag so check it out on all the streaming services. As a bonus I will throw in a new copy of the CD for the new owner.

The guitar plays great. No issues. Its in excellent plus condition especially considering its age. Serial number is 908629 which I believe makes it a 2002 build. I have been playing it in both standard tuning and Dadgad and it handles both with ease. Tons of volume and overtones, especially for an om size guitar. Beautiful highs and very responsive.
I see these guitars going for 19k
I am going to let this one go for $17000 plus shipping and any fees

Smile Martin

GAS in overdrive on this one! That is the nicest looking Martin I have seen. I had a Martin OM-42K that I miss.

Someone is going to be lucky to get this.

You have a sensational guitar collection. I can only imagine what you aren't selling.
