Item Description:

1983 Martin D-45 150th Anniversary Edition 
Acoustic with Original Hardshell Case.

Received from the Estate of the family of the original owner
  at ARIZONA MUSIC in Phoenix, AZ. 

Serial : 439193
Made in USA in Nazareth, PA in 1983
150th Anniversary Edition 1883 - 1983

Shop inspected, set up with new .012's
and tested by ARIZONA MUSIC's
master guitar man Mario Amodeo.

Ordered with Factory installed Martin / Fishman Active pickup system.

This guitar sounds, looks, and plays fantastic.
Original factory installed Fishman/ Martin under saddle active pickup
with factory installed input / strap button jack.
This guitar was custom ordered from Martin with pickup in 1983.
The guitar sounds great by it'sself.
But you have to hear how great the guitar sounds amplified !

This guitar has a very few minor issues.
None of which are major, but must be noted.
It's missing a very small small piece of abalone binding
at the lower bout on the top of the guitar (about 3/8" of an inch).
It has a very small ding on the neck heel.
It has normal wear scratches, (none of which are bad),
a few very small pencil size dings on the top.
No major dings, gouges, or scars.
The top has a pickguard shrinkage crack, of about 1/2 of an inch  --- 
 between the bridge and the the sound hole, over the B string.
(It's just to the left of the straight part of the original pickguard).
Examined by Mario Amodeo, ARIZONA MUSIC master guitar tech,
 - this is a small crack, and it's not moving.
It has been there for years, and it's stable.
Mario feels that it does not need addressing,
and that it will not be a problem in the future.

This guitar was not played that much, and it was not abused.
It is all original with original issued factory appointments.
Everything is in great condition, the nut, machines, bridge, etc . . .
The pickguard is attached firmly and not lifting.
The top is not dishing, or bulging.
The neck, frets and fingerboard are all in excellent condition.
No fret wear, the frets are in great shape.
Super tight ebony grained fingerboard.
Beautiful hexagonal abalone inlay on the fret board,
Abalone binding on the entire front, back, neck, and head stock.
The headstock is clean,  - the whole guitar is in great shape. 
The guitar has no other breaks, splits, cracks, or structural repairs on any kind.
(other than what was mentioned).

Comes with the original Hardshell Martin Guitar Case and a
100% Money Back Warranty from ARIZONA MUSIC.
