2018 Martin 000-28L (Left Handed) Acoustic Guitar- LIke New - SOLD
What's Hot
For sale is a beautiful 2018 Martin 000-28L left handed guitar - with the original flight case and all of the original "case candy". It was purchased new by me from Mansons (Exeter) in September 2018 on a special order. It is the latest "re-imagined" model in Martin's standard series with the design improvements over earlier models.
It has had little playing time and has never been gigged - and has been stored in its case in a clean, smoke-free environment. It been has professionally set-up - and looks, sounds and plays as good as you would expect a properly set-up Martin to. It is a real quality instrument with solid Sitka Spruce top and solid East Indian Rosewood back and sides.
It is in pristine, virtually as new condition with no dings, scratches or blemishes. I paid £2,750 for it (proof of purchase will be provided) - so here is the chance to get a guitar virtually indistinguishable from new for a huge reduction on the normal new price.
It is has recently been restrung with Elixir Polyweb 12's as I prefer the warmer tone that the 80/20 bronze strings provide. However, I would be happy to restring it with the Nanoweb equivalents if the brighter tone of phosphor bronze is preferred.
I am based near Bridgwater, Somerset - just 5 mins off M5 J23. However, I would be happy to post by a recognised and tracked courier to most mainland UK destinations for £30. Payment is by PayPal unless collected in person - for mutual protection.
Full specs can be found on Martins website at

If you prefer to go through a recognised selling engine to buy then it is also up for sale on Reverb
Comments
A bit about me - I returned to guitar playing via ukuleles two years ago after 15 years or so of abstinence and been making up for it since. In that time I've bought quite a few quality guitars - including Martins, Taylors and Godins - and sold them on in search for "the one" (or, at least, one of "the ones"!). Most of my selling to date has been on eBay where I have a 100% feedback rating - but I recently joined this forum and thought I'd try out the classifieds.
I've been pretty realistic about my pricing in all cases (some friends would say foolishly so). This Martin is a real beauty and was a great step-up from the Taylor 414ce I traded in for it - but for some reason or another I haven't quite bonded with it so it very rarely gets played - which is why I am selling it.
I live in Somerset just 5 mins off M5 J23 and am open to anyone wanting to have a look with no obligation to buy. I'm also happy to answer any questions.
Possibly coming soon (for the same reason) ******* 2017 LOWDEN F23C LEFT-HANDED ******* (owned from new, great condition with case & provenance)
