1979 Martin M-36 Jumbo Guitar

My friend Sue put all the wear and tear into this one.

Ever since I've known this guitar (since we moved up here, essentially) I wanted to make it right for her and finally got the chance. This got a neck reset, bridge repair (a whole section was split/torn-out but I salvaged it), some cleats for old back cracks, a level/dress of the frets, new saddle, and setup work.

I love seeing a guitar played so much by one owner...! It's got a big, full, saucy sound that really suits her folk-style strumming that has anchored all sorts of singing groups in the local area.
