Overall length is 37 7/8 in. (96.2 cm.), 13 5/8 in. (34.6 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 4 3/16 in. (10.6 cm.) in depth at side, taken at the end block. Scale length is 24 3/4 in. (629 mm.). Width of nut is 1 7/8 in. (48 mm.). Very fine condition overall, with only some very light dings and a small amount of pickwear to the finish and no major repairs. There iare two very minor repaired back cracks in the areas near the center seam. The neck has been reset and the saddle lowered, but the bridge remains orignal height and unaltered, and the bar frets are correct as well. This is a lovely example of a 1920's koa Martin, not a fancy model but a discreetly elegant guitar with a very fine sound. Excellent Condition.
