Here's great sounding Martin tenor that's ready for its next assignment, and anyone familiar with Rabon Delmore (Delmore Brothers) will recognize the tone as he played the same model for several years.
Original tuners, pickguard and bridge. There's been some overspray to the top, and finish work on the headstock as the Martin decal is now missing. At some point in its life this little Martin was bounced on the edge of the top, which resulted in a 4 1/2" top crack and a diagonal crack to the side below . These two cracks were repaired and reinforced many years ago, we couldn't find any other repairs.
