Description

This 1948 D-18 offers beautiful vintage Martin tone and excellent playability. The warm, lived-in sound of this guitar is perfect for a singer-songwriter or flatpicker looking for a cannon companion. It has been completely refinished with some of the finish peeling, especially on the bottom. For its full list of repairs head over to the Specs tab.

Includes white Crossrock hard shell 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.
