Description

A well loved and cared for D-18 that has been kept in fantastic playing condition. It has repaired back and side cracks with overspray on them as well as overspray on the back of the neck that has since worn down to a great feel. It has also had the standard neck set, re-fret, and a replaced bridge with a new nut and saddle so it plays excellently and effortlessly. The sound is huge yet articulate and delicate when fingerpicked - it's hard to ask for much better!

Includes a hard shell case.
