This SJ came into a friend’s guitar shop to have the bridge re-glued about 5 years ago. It had a trapeze on it. The holes from the trapeze are still there. Also a jack hole on the treble side. The bridge was re-glued by a local violin maker and repair shop. He says he put some new frets, but could not remember how many. The grandson of the original owner decided to sell the guitar. So here it is. Doubt I will see another one this clean. The number is 2785. I believe it is a 1944. From the sound and the look of the top it is Adirondack. Very powerful guitar that plays very well. I have hi res pics on my webpage. Comes in a nice Martin hard shell case from the early 60s. Price is $11,500 plus shipping/insurance. I will not pay paypal fees. Contact me at tmitchell59@comcast.net. Thanks, Terry.
