This 1938 Martin 00-18H features the classic small body design, coupled with a beautiful shadetop finish. In addition to the slotted headstock, wide nut spacing, and 12-fret design this guitar features the "H" designation, meaning it started as a Hawaiian guitar and was since converted to "Spanish-style".
In addition to the conversion, it has undergone some other maintenance repairs as well, which consist of patched spruce top under the bridge with a replacement bridge and bridge plate, a cleated crack repair along the treble side of the lower bout, replaced tuners for improved tuning stability, replaced nut, center seam crack between the bridge and the end pin block repair, neck set, and refret, while both the neck and body have overspray.
The repairs have made this a comfortable playing instrument, with medium action. There is moderate playwear and finish checking around the instrument, which all contribute to the wonderful character it exhibits. Comes with a hard shell case.
