Martin Style 1K (USED, 1920's)
Vintage
Ukulele players interested in adding a vintage Martin instrument to their collection will do no finer than this 1920's Style 1K -- a gorgeous sounding, rare, and extremely well-preserved instrument. The austere Style 1 appointment level is more commonly seen on Mahogany ukes from this period (and the fancier sets of Koa reserved for the glitzier, pearl-trimmed Style 5). We have never seen a Style 1K this clean! All the original components are intact and untouched. And while this uke has certainly been played, it bears no significant wear or cosmetic blemishing. All solid Koa body, with Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Priced with non-original tweed hardshell case.
