We've just completed a neck reset and refret on thisbeauty, bringing it back to better-than-new playability. This D-18 has anicely developed dry and woody voice with a hint of brightness, strong andsuccinct basses, and good volume. It has all the desirable pre-'65 featuresincluding a small maple bridge plate, thru-saddle Brazilian Rosewood bridge,tortoise-shell celluloid bindings and pickguard, \"T bar\" neck reinforcement,and light weight Kluson tuners. Mahogany back and sides, Sitka top,Brazilian fingerboard, and original ivory nut. There are a couple ofrepaired top cracks near the pickguard, and a couple of tiny side crackstypical of older D-18's - all of which are glued. An older not-so-prettycrack repair adorns the upper bass-side shoulder as pictured, but it's tightand poses no issues. The Kluson tuners are old correct replacements; nomodifications have been done to the headstock, and the bushings and tunersscrews are original. The finish is completely original, with no overspray.All in all, it is a great instrument, complete with a fresh neck-reset doneby the best shop around, and ready for its next lifetime of service. \u003cbr\u003eHard-shell case included. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sold\"\u003eSOLD\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"C.F.
