1958 Martin Baritone Ukulele

This time-capsule-clean Martin baritone uke was in the shop for some Gotoh tuners and a setup a while back. I've been trying to snag more photos of "passing-through" gear, but, ya know -- time, effort!

This one was too good not to share, though. Not only does it sound gorgeous, it's been in the same family since new and now... it plays in tune for more than a minute or so.

stays in tune for more than a minute?! Ouch! Humidity? Soft-Pretzel neck? My Kala may not have had the Izzy sound but stayed in tune for a good long while.

Ohhhhh no it was because of the terrible old friction pegs getting past their prime... :)
