1836 Martin - From the Workbench | Gruhn Guitars Repair Shop in Nashville, TN

C.F. Martin started building guitars in 1833, meaning the instrument David Kriesel repaired from 1836 is among the first guitars Martin built. The craftsmanship on this piece is incredible, from the zebra wood sides, handmade tuning set, and the hand-etched plate that covered the tuning set. Every aspect of the instrument was created with great care and detail. This guitar is not for sale.
The Gruhn Guitars repair shop has been world-renowned for decades for its unrivaled expertise, skill, and respectful repair practices.
