An absolute gem of a D-18. This guitar has the booming voice you expect to hear from a '40s D-18 with definition, sustain, and volume to spare. It has had the standard neck reset, bridge re-glue, replaced nut & saddle, so it plays perfectly and it has overspray on entire body, non-original oversized pickguard, a stabilized pickguard crack, and an ebony bridge plate saver installed. This guitar is really a joy to play and listen to.

Includes a modern Collings 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.
