1963 Martin 000-18

Serial # 188354. With its combination of mahogany back and sides, spruce top, 000-size compact body, and short 24.9" scale, the 000-18 has always been the go-to guitar for many of your favorite fingerstyle guitarists.This 1963 model is a lovely sounding guitar with excellent playability thanks to a recent neck-set and refret. Apart from the frets and new bone saddle, the instrument is completely stock and in good shape. The originalfull-height Brazilian rosewood bridge and pickguard were both reglued by the same Seattle-based luthier who set the neck on the guitar. A tightly repaired top crack on the upper bass bout and a repaired pickguard crackhelp keep the price low. Nicely darkened original lacquer finish, some wear on the back of the neck, no belt rash other wear spots. Soft-V neck carve, 1-11/16" nut.
With newer deluxe TKL hard case
