Vintage 1956 Martin 000-21 Brazilian Rosewood
Serial Number: 149693
Weight: 4.0lbs
Condition: Nice vintage condition. The body shows a typical amount of small dings and a few light scuffs. The back of the neck has some light dings and there is a patch of finish wear on the back of the headstock where a price sticker originally was. There are two small cracks around the pickguard which have been sealed. We believe this guitar had a well-done and professional refret at some point. Non original hardshell case included.
Top: Spruce
Back and Sides: Brazilian Rosewood
Binding and Pickguard: Tortoise
Neck: Mahogany
Fretboard: Rosewood, 14 fret, dot inlays
Tuners: Closed back Klusons
Setup Measurements: The guitar plays nicely as it sits. The action gets slightly higher at the 12th fret and the saddle is pretty low. May need a reset in the future – but as it sits, it is comfortable.
5th fret – 3/64″
12th fret High E – 4/64″
12th fret Low E – 6/64″
Relief – .015″
