Martin 000-42

I have to list this as used but this guitar was purchased about 6 weeks ago.  I hate to sell it but it really is too much guitar for me, and I learned that we will have moving expenses in the next few months (military family).  It has been sitting on a stand by a humidifier since I got it, with a couple of hours playing time, there are no pick marks on the guard, no marks of any kind on the guitar.  I like everything about this guitar, and there’s nothing about it that I don’t like.  It is a beautiful guitar with a full, warm tone that sounds like it is coming from a bigger body guitar, and it’s loud for a small body acoustic.  I changed the strings but it is otherwise original and comes with the original OEM case in the photo and the documentation.  I would prefer not to use PayPal on this auction because of the high fees, please read the “Read this” at the end of the listing.   

Read this:  I’ve had attempts of fraud recently and find it necessary to establish guidelines.  Yes I will ship out of the United States, and I understand how to do the paperwork.  I will only accept payment by the methods stated in this listing.  If you win the auction and live in Europe or Asia we can email and discuss the best means of payment.  I prefer a certified check or money order.  I will accept PayPal and first party checks but they have to clear before I will ship an item.  I always ship as soon as payment clears, by the method the buyer requests.  There is a calculator on this page for finding shipping costs; if it doesn’t work send a message with your address and I’ll send you shipping cost.  I only charge actual shipping costs, I do not charge for packaging and handling.  Most items will require insurance, so that if it is lost or damaged you can file a claim.  I will not falsify customs and shipping documents stating a lower value, it has to be insured for the amount of purchase.  If you have no feedback please Email before bidding, I will explain when I answer and will probably accept your bid.  I will send an invoice soon after the auction is finished; please either pay when you receive it or email and let me know when and how you will pay.  I don’t mind waiting a few days for payment but it is considerate to email and let me know when and how you intend to pay.  Sorry, but there are dishonest and inconsiderate people and eBay is easy for them to use.
