Details
Although Martin's N-10 classical model lasted from 1969 until 1993, this early version was changed in 1970 and given a longer string scale and an unMartin-like pointed headstock. An early N-20, this guitar's rosewood back and sides sibling, was the guitar Willie Nelson adopted and made famous (by wearing a hole in the top and for naming it "Trigger.")
This N-10 is in remarkably clean and original condition with very little playing wear. It has a nice clear tone and easy string action. The only wear is to the lower back corners of the headstock (probably from a guitar stand or hanger, or from a strap tied to the headstock). No sign of repairs or changes.
