C. F. Martin Style 1-T Model Tenor Ukulele (1950s), made in Nazareth, PA, natural lacquer finish, mahogany body and neck, rosewood fingerboard, original grey chipboard case.

This is a very nice example of one of our more requested instruments: the Martin Tenor Ukulele. Compared to the common soprano size the larger body and longer neck give a deeper, richer tone to the instrument. As a bonus the extended fingerboard offers a lot more room for more advanced modern uke stylings! This one dates the 1950s and has typical features for the time including Champion tuning pegs with black buttons, A "C.F. Martin & Co." gold decal on the headstock face, tortoise celluloid binding on the body, and the older style 12-fret neck joint. This is a really good-sounding instrument, with a warm mellow tone and plenty of volume.
 
Overall length is 25 1/2 in. (64.8 cm.), 9 in. (22.9 cm.) width, and 2 3/4 in. (7 cm.) in depth at side, taken at the end block. Scale length is 17 in. (432 mm.). Width of nut is 1 3/8 in. (35 mm.).
This is a relatively clean uke overall, all original with some checking to the finish and small dings scratches and dents overall but no heavy finish wear. The back of the neck in the first position has some light capo marks through the lacquer. The instrument remains all original with no cracks or repairs. This is a solid player with a big sound, resting in the original grey chipboard case that is still solid, with a "Coast Wholesale" badge under the lid. Overall Excellent Condition.
