Here's a 1958 Martin 00-18 acoustic guitar. It's a very nice playing vintage Martin with a great back story. It was a 1 owner guitar purchased new and hanging on the owner's wall in Alaska back in 1964.
On Good Friday, March 27, 1964, at 5:36 pm, Alaska experienced one of the greatest earthquakes in modern civilization. It registered 9.2 on the richter scale and lasted over 4 1/2 minutes. Tsunamis..., landslides and massive widespread damage resulted - 131 lives were lost.
On that fateful day, this guitar was damaged by the earthquake. It fell from the hanger and had a good sized bit of damage on the back edge. It also has a repaired crack by the nut. It has been professionally and fully restored since - as seen in the pictures.
The back and sides have overspray, but the top looks original. It has a soft "V" neck profile with a fresh neck reset and plays beautifully. Action is 3.5/32 at the 12th.
The bridge and saddle are original, tuners are correct repro's.
The finish has average type of playwear- small dings, small scratches and stuff.

It was set up with new strings, adjusted and plays very nicely. Comes with an old looking Martin case.
