Great Vintage CF Martin Mahogany Model O Ukulele made around 1962 A player/ collectors dream. It has some character to it but there are no significant structural problems. The action is perfect and face is free of cracks. All parts are original.   Overall a wonderful 56ish year old Martin ukulele with a sold  mahogany neck, body, back and sides with a rosewood fingerboard and ebony bridge and nut. It sounds great perfect. The ukulele is in excellent shape apart from 2 small cracks and one other that is barely detectable- thankfully they are not in the face and do not affect of the sound of the instrument whatsoever. See pictures for details. The neck is straight and the heel is solid to the body. No separation on the bridge to body. All joints show no evidence of glue degradation. Tuner friction is adjustable with room left to tighten solid. Holds tuning without problems. Thanks for your time and let me know if you have any questions!
