Martin 0-16NY (1964)
Big sounding 1964 Martin 0-16NY just into the shop! Conceived as a throwback to vintage guitars during the folk revival, Martin's "New Yorkers" of the 1960's turned out to be some of the best sounding guitars built in that era. This one has been well kept, and is all original. It exhibits significant finish crazing; so while it's not a guitar for a collector or someone who demands cosmetic perfection, it's a great sounding small-bodied instrument for anyone looking to break into the world of vintage guitars. The action as it sits would benefit an old-time player or flat picker, though there's a considerable amount of saddle showing should the next owner desire a lower setup. Priced with non original hard case.
