More sound per pound than any guitar in the shop! This 0-18 has seen quite a lot of work, but is now remarkably solid and ready for its next life as a hardworking, lightweight guitar that surprises all who play it. Neck had been reset before we got it, with a wedge under the fretboard at the soundhole end. Gryphon crew made the bridge and French polished the top. Multiple side cracks to the treble side had been repaired earlier, with a rather profuse batch of cleats on the inside, but we French polished the entire surface and it now looks quite nice. The coloring and surfaces of this guitar appear original, but it had been lightly oversprayed before we got it. Thanks to careful polishing, the finish appears very much like that of a late 1920s original Martin finish, but it isn't quite that simple. A strap button has been added to the heel as well.
