This vintage Martin is in pretty fine condition. 

The uke was built between 1947 and 1959.  In 1947, Martin switched from bar frets to T frets - this instrument has T frets.  In 1959, they added MADE IN USA to the logo stamped inside the uke - this uke does not bear that added line of text on its branding stamp.

There are no cracks or repairs, just some surface scratches.  It is a very nice example.

Inexpensive, non original gig bag included.
