Oh, to lose track of time with this piece of history. Our 1944 000-21 is a sweet dream made reality; last year Martin exclusively used Adirondack Spruce, and one of the last serial numbers to have scalloped braces; straight-lace Brazilian Rosewood back and sides; silk-smooth setup. The voice has the liveliness and depth that can only come with age, and is a treat to behold under both fingertips and flatpicks. 21-Style appointments throughout, herringbone rosette, and original case and finish, as are the bridge and plate.

A rare case queen 1944 Martin 000-21. This one has been babied and well preserved. We don't see many like this!
Well-cared for pays off when you sound this good. Thank you to all the people who have been responsible owners since 1944! As a result we get to offer a 000-21 in excellent condition, plus all the perks of an expressive and opened up voice.
