The Flood Family is selling, for Grandpa, his 1944 000-28 Martin guitar with its original case!!
It has Brazilian rosewood, original square frets and made in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. Serial number is 88229 if you want to look it up.
It has been professionally repaired in the front but plays and sounds great.
This is a video of son Joseph playing it today. We could have had Grandpa play it, but then that wouldn't be fair 'cause Grandpa could make a cardboard box sound like a Stradivarius.
The first part of the video is of Joseph recorded with the digital camera and the second part consists of pictures of the guitar set to a digital recording of Joseph playing - it's better quality.
It sold! Yay!! Somewhere out in California it found a new home. And I think it will be restored to it's former glory and be even better.
