If I win the lotto

[Cornfield]

I would buy this one https://reverb.com/item/6683929-martin-2-45t-1927

Wow, that's a beauty!

But definitely priced as a collectible, not a player.

I don’t think the pick guard is original. There was only 1 built in 27, too bad it has that ugly guard.

I agree with Cornfield about the pickguard. I would guess that they would have had a standard shape pickguard, most likely tortoise celluloid.

Here's pics for if and when it sells and it taken off the site:

Personally, I'd call Randy Wood and get him to build me a mando.
