This rare 1940 Martin 0-18 Shadetop has seen some changes over the years, but it is a great player. It has been fully oversprayed and a prior owner informed us that the neck was swapped with another 1940 example, but you'd hardly notice unless you removed it—it's a seamless fit. Comes updated with new frets, a replaced saddle and a TJ Thompson replica bridge to bring it up to top-notch performance ensuring that it plays effortlessly. The guitar is super resonant, with a balanced and articulate tone typical of these smaller-bodied pre-war Martins and as a Shadetop it is an especially rare find! Includes Calton Case.

The Martin 0-18 is a revered acoustic guitar featuring a parlor body shape and high-quality woods, providing a balanced and articulate tone suitable for various music styles.
