Condition is like-new. I will be enjoying this guitar and despite my absolute care to keep it hydrated and not to scratch it some small surface abrasions from the pick may occur.
FULL SETUP:
- Neck Straightened
- Fret levels checked.
- Frets hand polished then buffed w/ polishing wheel.
- All screws and bolts torqued.
- Plastic bridge pins replaced with solid brass.
- Action set.
- Strung up with Stringjoy Brights 13 - 56.
The D-12E Koa will undoubtedly become your go-to gig guitar. With the D-12E Koa in Martin’s lineup, now more players can turn their dreams of owning a koa guitar into reality. The back and side of this gorgeous model are constructed with koa fine veneer, which is an environmentally conscious, alternative-wood option, made by bonding koa hardwood to an African mahogany core. The result is the show-stopping look of a koa guitar at a great price. But there is so much more to this guitar.
Aside from the legendary Martin tone, you will get mother-of-pearl-patterned rosette and fingerboard inlay, a full-gloss body, a soft-shell gig bag, Fishman® MX-T electronics, and Martin’s Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 strings.
