SN 154. Circa OM-28 originally owned by Al Pettaway. Al was an extraordinary finger stylist (any style really) whose beguiling guitar arrangements were an integral part of the Dream Guitars web site. Clearly, Dream Guitars, Al and Circa have a special relationship; a love of Circa guitars is...

SN:46387. Here is a very fine example of Martin’s most popular Koa wood guitar – the 0-18K. The majority of these guitars were designed to be played in the lap with slides (Hawaiian style) and were set up with tall nuts and saddles, flush frets, and flat fretboards. In 1927, Martin discovered a...

SN 149312. Wow. Excellent sounding example of an early D-21 that is clean and original: and comes with the original case. Sitka top, straight grain Brazilian back and sides, 28-style back strip, rosewood fingerboard and bridge and tortoise style binding front and back. The model can be considered a...

FON 913B. A wonderfully clean mid-30s L-00 that combines new guitar playability, robust vintage tone and startling good looks. The Adirondack top is finished in the large bright burst standard after '34. It's crack free, 99.9% original and very fresh looking. Firestripe pickguard, original bridge...

SN 92447. Exceptional-player-grade-plus 1945 Martin D-18 with Adirondack top, tapered braces and full refret and setup by Dennis Berck. Here’s a bluegrass player with volume and cut-- at a favorable price-- in a handsome package. The years 1944-1946 were, once again, a crossroads for Martin and...

SN: 4. Earlier build from Blazer & Henkes that will be 20 years old next year! It’s not the fourth guitar B&H made, rather, Willi tells me, it is the fourth guitar from their first batch of Gibson SJ reproductions. It’s the only one made with rosewood back and sides -- like legendary batch 9112...

SN 3779. Sweet guitar for front porch picking or campfire jams. All mahogany construction, simple appointments, very light build (3lbs, 5oz), solid woods, truss rod, made by Collings. Vintage style V- shaped neck with 1-3/4” nut and nice full feel. Inside we have X-bracing with two tapered tone...

SN: 72406. Scalloped bracing (rear shifted X), Adi top, 1-3/4” nut and wide string spacing; this one pushes the golden era buttons without the big price tag. Purchased from Elderly some time ago with an oversized bridge and bridge plate, it was shipped to Dennis Berck. Repairs include new period...

SN 32047. This nearly new 12-fret 00 from Collings has impressive tone and volume. The wider neck, string spacing and low action make it an ideal fingerpicker and folksy strummer. The Adi top drives enough response to cut through the other instruments when called upon. It’s modeled after a Martin...

SN: 53748. Rare prewar 000-21 with wide neck, scalloped bracing, Brazilian rosewood back and sides. Despite a repair history and cosmetic challenges, she remains a great playing and sounding prewar Martin. Style 21 is one of Martin’s longest running models, introduced in 1874 in a model 1. The...

SN: 995172. Near mint example of a twenty year-old D-18 Golden Era. The GE was originally a “Limited Edition” model that moved into production in response to the growing interest in prewar guitars. It conformed to the specs and some of the construction techniques of the 1937 and later 1934...

SN: 825793. Clarence White Commemorative Edition limited to 292 instruments produced in 2001. This edition is loosely based on the 1952 D-18 Clarence played with the Kentucky Colonels. With that legendary instrument, White pioneered the use of the acoustic guitar as a solo instrument in bluegrass,...

SN 1997790. NEW PRICE. Here is an immaculate Martin Custom Shop limited edition build for Elderly Instruments for the 2016 NAMM show. It’s one of only five or six made to these specs. It brings together traditional Martin workmanship, very high quality but readily available tonewoods and some fun...

SN: 46108 ON HOLD. Made in Nazareth, PA during a Golden period in Martin’s history when they simultaneously produced amazing 12-fret guitars braced for steel strings, the earliest `14-fret designs (by shortening the upper bouts of the 12-frets) and an all-new 12-fret dreadnought model. In this...

Beautiful, crack-free instrument in exquisite condition. It was built just before Martin began using serial numbers. Inside penciled “J.J.K. Aug 31, 1897” marking the day the build started. It’s pressure-stamped “C.F. Martin, New York, New York” on the back of the head-stock and heat stamped on the...

SN 105. Lovely Santa Cruz 00 built near the end of 1999. She has aged gracefully over twenty-four years of playing and is still in EX+ to near mint condition. Very lightly built, she is a reimaging of a late stage Martin 12-fret 00-28 with some updates for the modern player. Materials include a...

SN 621. Friends, here is a superpower Advanced Jumbo replica from the workshop of Rudi Blazer and Willi Henkes in Tubingen Germany. These two world renowned master luthiers are well known for their authentic replicas and reinterpretations of golden era acoustics built in small batches, by hand,...
