The list price was $56,600. Today, it would exceed $70,000.  We sold this guitar new to a collector who has asked us to resell it for him.  It is 100% perfect and unplayed.  It has been kept in a perfectly humidified environment.  This guitar does not carry a factory warranty because Martin warranties do not transfer from the original owner, but our My Favorite Guitars Limited Lifetime Warranty will apply to this instrument.  It is a very rare piece and will continue to grow in value.  It is the only guitar of its kind in the world.
