I recently obtained (almost by accident) a vintage Style 0 Martin soprano and I am trying to date it. I am aware the exact dating is unavailable due to absence of a serial number. I am also aware of basics: the uke has contemporary frets, thus it's post WWII production and the stamp inside doesn't have "made in USA", thus it's before '61. But is there a way to narrow the production year even more? I am just curios. Thanks.
P.S. The second image is just for viewing pleasure. This uke against my beloved early '20s Martin Style 1. Actually the sound almost exactly the same.
