The single piece back, sides, and neck are of nicely figured maple, top is fine grained spruce, and the whole finished with a shaded amber oil varnish. The label indicates E Martin , and features the Martin lyre logo on the back and the Martin monogram on the neck the button. The instrument is in very good condition with beautiful traditional woods and a slightly darker shaded amber/brown varnish. Has a great voice, easy playability, and looks great, too. Includes a good oblong wood case.
