Description

A fantastic D-18 that has all the spirit and sound of its prewar counterparts! It has had a neck reset, re-fret, and a new bridge installed so it plays perfectly. It also has 4 Repaired back cracks (with finish touch up), 3 of which are cleated as well as 1 repaired treble side crack with repaired pickguard cracks. Thanks to the work, it has decades of life left and is imbued with years of songs being strummed. It sounds strong and full with character and definition to spare. This guitar would be at home in the studio or on stage and is ready to inspire its new owner!

Includes a hard shell case.
