Description

A product of the early 1900's Hawaiian music craze, the C.F. Martin Company began to produce ukuleles for sale in 1915. The success Martin saw from ukulele sales through the teens and twenties yielded opportunity to expand guitar production. Without the production of the ukuleles from Martin we may not have the guitars and lore we have now. The sale of these instruments helped to sustain Martin through to the other side of the Great Depression. This particular 1940s example is in very good condition, showing only light signs of wear. It sounds and plays great!

Chipboard case included.
