That serial # would make it a 1959 model. The last # for 1959 was 171047. The last serial # for 1958 was 165576. As far as finding out the day of mfg. a call to Martin customer service might help....

I was thinking it's short a digit also. If the first 3 digits are correct, and it is short a digit, I think it would make it an early 2013 model.

Martin only has computerized records (to the day) back to the 70s, or so CS told me.

I think it is, in fact, a 2013. The Martin chart shows the last serial number for the year.
