Martin / 000R / 1999 / Sunburst / Guitar
|
This is a great chance to buy an American made Martin acoustic for a lot less than you'd expect. The 000R was only made in a limited run of 2000, and was designed for working guitarists - built stronger and more durable, but with specially designed top braces to enhance tone and sustain. It's also unusual to see a Martin in a sunburst finish. As a 16 year old guitar, the tone has matured beautifully, with warm rich mids and trebles, yet is finely balanced and has great clarity. This example is still in very good condition, with a few minor dings and general playwear. The neck feels smooth and easy to play, and the action is very comfortable. The guitar has an active Fishman pickup installed with tone and volume controls mounted inside the soundhole, and sounds very natural when plugged in. It comes in it's original Martin hard case.
Glenns Guitars, UK 
Welcome to Glenn's Guitars here on Vintage & Rare. After many years in the industry, and having been fortunate enough to have worked in Hanks and The Acoustic Centre - probably London's two foremost acoustic guitar shops - I decided to do my own thing.
I have a passion for used and vintage acoustic guitars; nearly new second hand guitars because they can represent a bargain compared to the price of a new guitar, older and vintage guitars because they tend to have more character and can often become an investment.
You will notice when viewing my stock list my taste in guitars, as I only sell guitars that I genuinely like - and there are certain brands noticeable by their absence. I am a huge fan of older Gibson, Martin and Guild acoustics, but also more boutique brands such as Lowden and Collings.
I will consider part exchange if it makes your desired guitar a little easier to afford. I also offer a guitar finding service, if there's something specific you're looking for.
If you are happy to buy over the internet, I will send you as many high resolution photos and as much information about the guitar you're interested in as I can. If you can get to me - I'm based in Enfield, only 30 minutes from London Liverpool Street Station - you can always make an appointment with me and come and try some of the guitars out first.
I accept payment by Paypal, bank transfer, cheque and of course cash.
