It's a 2002 with zero fret wear, don't think it's hardly been played. My first OM; I just spent an hour on the couch with it and it's very comfortable to sit with.
Gorgeous silky spruce top, nice grainy mahogany. Very pretty.
The '02s came with micarta, but this one has been upgraded to a bone nut and saddle. And ebony bridge pins. All things I would have done myself.
It's got the Mod V neck with a 1 3/4" nut, which is my favorite Martin neck. In satin, of course. Plays really nice, except for a slight buzz on the low E. I'll give it a few days to acclimate (it came from sea level to 8500 feet and 8% Rh), and put my preferred Elixir Lights on it and maybe it will go away.
I'm really happy with it. I had its little brother, a 00-18V, that was a great guitar. This is just like it. Balanced and articulate.
Less than a thousand made. Very nice!
