  According to the markings on the neck block (inside the guitar body) this 000-size 6-string was manufactured on September 7, 1972.

  Owner: Mark E (USA)

  I am the original owner. Purchased the guitar brand new in 1973 in a small music store in Poughkeepsie, NY. The guitar
  was always kept in the case and in the closet -- except when brought out to play, of course. If I remember correctly,
  I paid $75 USD for it.
  Until last year, the guitar was 100% vintage. I do not plan to sell the guitar, so I decided to make some improvements.
  I replaced the original pickguard, which had light scratches, with a Tortis '30s style -- see photo gallery below.
  I also replaced the original adjustable saddle with one I handmade out of Indian Rosewood. Also replaced was the
  original plastic saddle with a vintage bone saddle which I compensated. See the gallery below for details on this modification
  The last upgrade was the tuners - the originals were chrome covered and not the best quality.I replaced them with Grover Sta-tite nickel
  open-back tuners because they replicate the vintage style of Martin acoustics of that time period.


  The guitar has wonderful tone -- very full, yet bright. It also has great sustain for an acoustic. I have played Martin 000s and OMs
  and my Jedson sounds noticeably better.
