1898 Martin 0-28 - Recommended Luthiers?
Found this beat up old guitar a while back. Body coming apart, knobs, inlay, and string pegs missing. I noticed a faint engraving on the back of the headstock "C.F. Martin Co Nazareth, P.a.", and decided to buy it.
Measurements consistent with a Martin 0-28 body type. Serial number 8176, so either built in or before 1898 (Last Serial number 8348).
Looking for any recommended luthiers or restorationists. Thanks!
