Description

The Martin 000-18 is a classic prewar auditorium-size acoustic, pairing a spruce top with mahogany back and sides, a mahogany neck, and ebony fingerboard and bridge. This 1940 example features a 24.9" scale, 16" radius, and a neck profile that transitions from a C to a soft V, giving it a distinctly vintage feel.

This example is in overall fair condition and has seen a number of repairs and alterations. It has had a neck reset, bridge reglue, three repaired back cracks, side cracks on both sides, and a filled hole on the top. The tuners have been replaced with Grovers, the back and sides have been oversprayed, and numbers have been etched into the pickguard, headstock face, and above the end pin. It includes a non-original hardshell case.
