Often imitated yet never duplicated, the Martin D-18 is a flagship acoustic guitar that has outlasted many phases of music in American history. This particular guitar was produced in 1967, and by the year and period of lineage, its bridge and fingerboard are believed to be Brazilian Rosewood. It also features a comfortable C-shape neck and Grover tuners. This D-18 has been well loved – and well worn – through the years but never neglected, making it player-ready for the next home, studio, or stage.
There are signs of general use throughout the years with repair history. Gloss finish sunken into body at back center seam. This Martin D-18 is in good condition.
