The polite way of referring to his "friend" who just can figure out how to deal with a guitar store and case? That makes the F and perhaps the M obvious.

Or perhaps the Unofficial Martin Guitar Forum?

Hello Jahn,

It's interesting to note that during the '60s the Guild catalogs were still showing instruments with features from the '50s. Here's a slightly better scan from the 1961 catalog showing that same sunburst F-30 with 'simple G' headstock inlay.

I love catalogs but the photos are not always a good source for information when you're doing research.

Sincerely,

Hans Moust
