2016 Martin D-18 Centennial Dreadnought Guitar

Overview: Here's a clean, near-mint, D-18 from the dreadnought design's centennial year. While it has modern features like a quicker neck, drop-in saddle, and truss rod, the ebony fretboard and bridge and 1 3/4" nut width give it some '30s-style throwback looks and feel. It's got the quintessential D-18 sound -- it's loud, proud, and perfect for bluegrass-style runs and chord-backing work, both.


Repairs included: I just needed to give it a quick setup. It's playing bang-on and ready to go!
