This much loved, and much played guitar belonged to my late guitarist, song-writer, singer, storyteller husband.  He bought it new in 1963 and never stopped playing.  He carried it everywhere, playing somewhere every week.  It is hard for me to let it go, but I don't play, and I hate to see this beautiful sounding instrument just sit in a corner gathering dust.  It needs the life a musician can give it.There is wear on the top, especially around the sound hole.  There is also wear around the tuning pegs and some nicks on the back.  As I said, this guitar didn't sit often, it was used, and used a lot.The case is hard with black canvas padding.  There is wear on the case that I have tried to show in the photos.  The case has a traditional carrying handle as well as straps so that it can be carried like a backpack.  Inside is grey plush and there is a humidity indicator.I am including the capo and tuner he kept in the case, and his leather strap.Martin Serial # 193360 - which is early 1963If you pay the Buy It Now price, I will insure and ship it free anywhere in the US.#03-0417
