Shopbuilt DEEP BODY 00-size, 12-fret in X braced spruce over rosewood. Nut 1 13/16”, String spacing 2 5/16”. Martin-inspired body styling, with folky inlays, delivers a huge sound for big hands.
052025C
I don’t generally veer too far from established design norms on a small body build but decided to throw fate to the wind on this beauty. This Martin-inspired 12-fret delivers the classic body proportions and styling so recognizable to pre-war design lovers, but on steroids. Particularly, the extra body depth exceeded tonal expectations and the neck depth and profile are not for the faint of heart. Huge sound for bid hands pretty much sums it up.

Regal “Buck Jones" true parlor 12-fret in ladder-braced spruce/birch, 1 3/4” nut, 2 1/4” string spacing, perfect fingerstyle companion to your larger body acoustic stable
022826A
Regal built stout guitar models at affordable prices for young followers of early radio personalities. The “Buck Jones” model was one of many stenciled cowboy guitars sold in 1930s department stores. With a few modern upgrades (and despite the lower bout of only 12” across) I’m pleased to offer this sweet sounding, easy playing, small body steel string for your consideration. A great little fingerstyle guitar, plain and simple.

Vintage 1965 Harmony model 910, 0-size 12-fret in ladder braced cedar/birch with 1 7/8” nut and 2 5/16” string spacing. This parlor offers “crossover" flexibility between high tension nylon and steel string without sacrificing playability and tone. Solid American-made vintage parlor for the money.
022826B
The Harmony 910 platform is the closest to Martin body specs that Harmony ever ventured. The cedar top is a great upgrade for a guitar this size and the generous string spacing lends itself to serving both classical and steel string playing styles. Compared to other 0-size models, the 910 is longer and deeper and you know what that means.

Vintage Kay “Folk” 000-size 12-fret in X-braced spruce/birch with 1 7/8" nut and 2 7/16” string spacing. Larger body with crossover capabilities offering setup options for either acoustic steel or high tension nylon strings. These don't come around too often. Robust voice with relic styling.
022826C
I choose my larger body acoustic rebuilds carefully but the Kay-made Folk models from the 1950s and 1960s are hard to turn away. I love the tonal responsiveness of a 000-size body mated with a 12-fret neck. Here’s another crossover candidate (in a larger body size) that will get along with most any acoustic guitar collection that might currently be missing out on such a beauty. Have a listen and go for it!

Pre-1880s C.F. Martin stamped New York Size 1, 12-fret in X-braced spruce/brazilian rosewood, 1 7/8” nut, 2 1/4” string spacing. Exceptional early New York stamped Martin with professional grade work already performed, untouchable tone with setup options for either nylon or low tension round core steel. On Consignment.
022826D
This early C.F. Martin stamped New York, N.Y. believed to be model 1-26 or 1-28 from a musical family whose patriarch has passed on and consigned this guitar to my shop to sell on their behalf. I’ve had a few early 1900s Martins over the years but none this old nor in as good a condition as this example. Pro-quality neckset, and more, makes this a player right out of the custom-made coffin case. This example might not be a museum piece but you’re not likely to find another in this condition for the price.
