This is a super RARE Martin Koa made only in 1927. This guitar is beautiful and sounds amazing. It is in all original condition. It does have a few repaired cracks in the bridge area. They were done a long time ago & have held up nice & tight. This is very common on these guitars because of the extra tention. Comes in a nice hard case. Vintage price guide says 3800.00 to 4700.00 My price 3600.00 Please feel free to call with questions. 843-670-9727

I believe it is set up out of the factory for playing with a steel. Look at the raised nut

yes, this is a legitimate steel guitar, so goes in steel guitars.
it always amazed me how few hawaiian guitars ever get listed here.

These are wonderful guitars. I have a 018 KH from 1932.
They were made from 1917 to mid 30`s.
Absolutely beautiful tone, recommended....
