Marin 5-21 T 1928

$3,400.00
  • VERY sweet little vintage tenor, built in 1928 and lovingly and expertly restored to full strength in 2025 by Matt Kerslake. The neck has been reset, and there’s a new bridge and saddle. Cracks all cleated. Tune it any old way you like, mandolin-family, uke-family, Middle Eastern, guitar-family … the sky’s the limit. Hugely versatile instrument. You Kingstong trio types could really get your Nick Reynolds on with this one.
