Shopbuilt Martin inspired 00-size, 12-fret in X braced spruce over Pau Ferro rosewood. Nut 1 3/4”, String spacing 2 1/4”. Bluesy-inspired relic burst finish with classic styling and reliable tone
041526A
This guitar is a wonderful compilation of looks, feel and sound. I’ve always liked the look of a burst top over natural sides and back. The Pau Ferro grain is rather fetching. The body size and neck profile have near universal appeal and the tone offers an attractive selection for sofa, stage or studio with long term dividends. Great value for an American made shop built small body.

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.

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.

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.

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.
