This pre-war D-18 has seen its fair share of repairs and mods, but it is an absolute monster! Considering its age and the structural work done it is in great shape, is set up with nice medium action, and is ready to roll for many years to come. Includes a 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.
