quote=Jeffery Smith]What's that little Martin? Is it short scale?

 

It's a "Little Martin"!! That one is the LX1E version and it has a 23" scale neck. It has a pick up in it and it is loads of fun to play. I paid $300 for it and it came with a beautiful padded gig bag. That is now my number one travel guitar and I take it to work with me sometimes. It fits in my locker and is easy to bring anywhere.

Ah Thanks guys! RSDx that sure is a beautiful top! Jepi' date=' holy molly, how old is that guitar? She is pretty! Bet she sings too![/quote']

 

Thanks Svet. '65 FT45 Cortez. I've had it since about '70 and I've done a few repairs to the body, replaced the bridge and added a pickup. Got lottsa hours on this old ax and at one point in the '90's its all I played for about a year. I'm very happy with the tone and playability. Cheap when it was new - I think about $115...... Its good enough for me and is the 2nd oldest in my stable..................J
