2008 Martin D-18 natural
Made in USA
Very Good condition, 7/10, Made in USA, including original hardcase, price brand new is 42390SEK (about 4000euro), has an aftermarket passive pickup installed (not sure which brand), has a repair in the side which is almost invisible but is 2 10cm long glued parallel hairline cracks that are about 3cm apart, probably from pressure, but professionally repaired and structurally sound and strong so no worries, more info: Along with its Rosewood counterpart, the D-28, the Martin D-18 stands as one of the true original dreadnoughts introduced by Martin in 1932. The D-18 made a switch from a 12-fret to a 14-fret instrument in 1934 and has stayed largely the same since, with just the occasional change in wood source or cosmetic detail. Since the D-18 uses Mahogany instead of Rosewood, it is thought to have a somewhat crisper sound with more definition the top-end.
