1. Waverly 3 on a plate tuning machines with Snakewood knobs. Cost $300 including installation
2. LR Baggs Anthem SL pickup Cost $300 including installation
3. A Snakewood strap button and bridge pins.

The guitar is in mint condition as is the case. It does have slight marks on the pick-guard from finger nails.This is both an amazing sounding guitar (typical of 12-fret guitars) and an amazing looking guitar. The original tuning machines were and looked very cheap. The Waverly replacements are top of the line, made in Montana.The LR Baggs Anthem Sl pickup sounds great and includes an UST as well as an internal microphone. The upgrades have transformed a good guitar into a stellar guitar. Here are the specs from Martin:

The Martin 000-15SM Acoustic Guitar with Case improves on a previous model known as the 000-15S. The 000-15SM shares the same all-mahogany body with slotted headstock as its predecessor but now comes with a morado fingerboard and bridge, real rosette, improved fretboard inlays, and nickel tuners with butterbean nobs. This small-bodied guitar harkens back to an earlier time before the invasion of the dreadnought. It features a 12-fret body design that offers up plenty of woody tone and volume, in spite of its compact size. This is a great guitar for fingerpickers or anyone looking to acquire an instant classic.

This is a good deal, peeps. I've got a stock one of these in Sapele all around with no upgrades that is a keeper for comfy couch, blues, campfire, beach, etc.

Scott - thanks for the endorsement. It is a really nice guitar. I just have a hankering for a small CF for travel and the funds have to come from somewhere. There is potential trade offer that I am awaiting more information on Lucky 13. I also have a buy offer that is just a little short as an option.

Thanks again everyone for the kind words and bump help
