With a lower bout 11.25", a body length of 16", and a scale of 21.4", the 5-21 is the smallest guitar in Martin catalogs. These guitars were originally categorized as “terz” guitars, designed to be tuned to three frets higher than standard pitch.  This particular example features a Spruce top over a Brazilian Rosewood back and sides.  The back and sides have been oversprayed, a section of the binding replaced, and the neck has been reset. Comes with the original Hard Case.
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
