This 1952 Martin 00-18 is a lightly built, small-bodied acoustic guitar featuring a solid mahogany back and sides paired with a Sitka spruce top. With its 24.9" short scale and 1 11/16" nut width, it offers a comfortable playing experience, ideal for fingerstyle and light flatpicking. Known for its dry, woody tone and quick response, the 00-18 from this era delivers the warm, focused voice characteristic of vintage Martin guitars. For the full repair and modification history, check out the Specs tab. Includes a modern hardshell case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
