Used! This stunning vintage Martin D-18 is a sight and sound to behold! It’s a well-loved, well-played, and exceptional sounding Pre-War / WarTime example from 1945 with features typical for the era. These features include Mahogany back and sides, Adirondack Spruce top with tapered bracing, Ebony bridge and fingerboard with Maple bridge plate, Mahogany neck and Brazilian Rosewood peghead overlay. This guitar has been freshly serviced with “the works!” including a neck reset, refret, new bridge, new bone nut and saddle and replacement pickguard. The small Maple bridge plate is original and has had the end pin holes professionally plugged and re-drilled. There is a cleated repaired top crack (center seam). All work is professional, solid, ready to play! The neck is incredibly comfortable with a 1-11/16” nut width and worn, soft V profile. The tone is rich, detailed, and balanced. This is the perfect player / collector guitar. A well-worn example with tone that has been played into the guitar for nearly 80 years! And it is now freshly and professionally serviced - Ready for another 80 years. Don’t miss this opportunity!!! A period Hard Case is included but it's a little rough. Avoid disappointment and future regret! Buy today!!!
