Does Not Need Nor Has Ever Had A Neck ResetIf you're seeing something of concern not described below, please ask...This guitar is completely original other than strap button and string pins. The entire guitars finish was properly checked and there are no signs of refinishing, repairs or over spray.Condition Description:This Vintage Martin 0-17 is a great playing and incredible sounding guitar. It shows very little playwear for its age! It will have minor scratch's, dings and marks here and there, but still in incredible condition for a 78 year old vintage guitar. Issues to note would be a few hairline cracks on the back (one appears to have been glued years ago and one in the center on the top between the bridge and sound hole as pictured. They are very fine, hard to see and can easily be glued or cleated if desired. That's the extent of if and is truly a beautiful example of a Vintage Martin Survivor!The fingerboard and frets are in perfect condition showing almost no fret or fingerboard wear and plays beautifully as it sits (see pics). Current string height is just under 1/8" at the body with a little saddle room left for future adjustment. The original finish is super nice overall, but will have minor flaws as mentioned above. The original tuners are in excellent shape and operate as they should. The back of the neck and headstock are also in great condition showing only very minor wear/flaws as pictured (see pics). My pics are very descriptive, so scroll down to see them all!If your a player or collector, this Vintage Martin 0-17 will make a great addition! Its truly a great playing/sounding guitar. Although, I think its set up great, everyone has their own preferences. If your not happy with its set up, it will be your responsibility to have it set up to your liking. Its set up and plays great as it sits.The included chipboard case is probably a little newer than the guitar, but still old and vintage. All the latches and hinges work as well as the interior door. The handle is missing. The case will obviously show wear and tear, but if a handle is fitted, you will be able to carry the guitar around in the case. The case is a perfect fit for the guitar.Make sure you view all of the pics, and ask questions if you have any concerns before buying.I will ship this item over seas, but you must contact me for a shipping quote before buying.
