30s Martin C-1.

Perfect neck set, perfect action, gun barrel straight neck. Sheesh.

Aside from a replaced pickguard, and some light overspray on the back of the neck, this thing is flying just the way it came out of the factory in 1936.

An absolute joy to play, and a neck shape that may just change your life, soft V, that gets thicker as you go up the neck.

Mucho checking, but no cracks or repairs.

One little divot nearest the top of the fingerboard on the bass side (please see pics).

I know it is common for folks to buy these, reset the neck, and re-top em..to be an regular acoustic..the previous owner would be much happier if this didn't happen haha.

Maybe with dwindling C-1s people will see the sense in keeping these stock, because, though not your regular Martin cannon acoustic, it produces a very sweet sweet archtop sound.

Original case is long gone, but this comes with a TKL case with fetching green lining.

A very special thing indeed, from a long long time ago, that is still sounding and looking good.

Made in the USA
