Notes:
The Concert version of Martin's famous O Soprano uke. Made in the latter 1920's. Bar Frets. All Mahogany with no body binding. A couple of repaired hairline back-cracks and probable over-spray on the back. This uke has great action and playability and is light as a feather. A one-owner uke, personalized on the peg-head: "Lee Lee". Plenty Good Mojo. No mention of this model in any of the Martin books, so it's rare, maybe important and possibly unique. Modern Hard-Shell Case
