Hi,
A guy wants to sell me a 1967 Martin D28. I haven't seen it yet, however he says it is mint, with hang tags etc.
When he told me this I thought it probably needs a neck reset if no one has ever played it much.
I also understand that this era had some neck reset issues.
I asked him if it needed a neck reset and he said he felt it was close to needing it.
I was wondering if anyone can give me an opinion on what to expect for a guitar of this era. Is the neck reset a big issue, and what should I expect in respect to the impact on value.
The seller said he felt they were going for $6k to $7k on ebay but he didn't expect to get that much.
lastly when did barzillian fretboards finish. Would a 67 be breazillian?
Thanks
