Description

The 000 series is often considered Martin’s most versatile and comfortable body size, and the 000-18, with its mahogany back and sides, offers exceptional tonal warmth and clarity across the sound spectrum. Known for its dry, woody warmth, mahogany gives this guitar a balanced, pleasing sound, making it a true all-rounder. This particular example is in excellent shape for its age, featuring a neck reset, bridge reglue, crack repair, and replacement pins. If you're looking for a single vintage guitar that could satisfy you for life, this one is worth serious consideration. Comes with a non-original hard 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.
