Martin 00-18 (USED, 1945)
Vintage
This 1945 Martin 00-18 is an absolutely exceptional example of the model: super clean, all-original except for a re-fret, and incredible-sounding. It's light as air (ebony rod in the neck) and responds like a dream. We could wax poetic all day long about how good it sounds (it's resonant, woody, and complex all at once), but we invite you to click 'Play' on the accompanying video and listen for yourself. Please note that online checkout is not available for this guitar; interested parties should contact us for purchase details. Priced with contemporary hard case.
