Description

This 1939 Martin D-18 is perfectly weathered with an authentic worn-in aesthetic. It Comes updated with a replaced bridge/saddle and new frets for a fast and slick feel on the neck which sports a comfy medium profile that fits nicely in the hand. The bridge and saddle have been replaced for better playability and the refret provides a smooth and comfortable playing experience across the board. A few cracks have been professionally repaired with one notable update being a large Maple bridge plate overlay. Despite these modifications, this D-18 retains its vintage character with the warmth and projection that only a guitar of this vintage can deliver. Includes original hardshell case.
