Martin 00-17 1954 - Mahogany

1954 Martin 00-17 Vintage Acoustic Guitar – Original Finish & Tuners

A family-owned vintage Martin 00-17 with original finish, original tuners, and a history dating back to the 1950s.

This Martin 00-17 has been in my family for many years. My father played it some in the 1960s and occasionally in the years that followed, but it has spent most of its life stored in a case. It remains in very good vintage condition, with cosmetic scratches consistent with its age.

The guitar retains its original finish and original tuners. A seam repair was professionally performed by a Martin-certified shop. The neck has not been reset, and the action is moderate. The guitar plays well and sounds lovely.

There are no other known cracks beyond the repaired seam. Please review the photos carefully for cosmetic condition and details of the repair.
