Martin D-18 1953 - certainly one of the most extraordinary D-18s we have ever seen - rarely do you find such a powerful and dynamic sound!
She has a ’53 Mystery Top, which makes her even more desirable!
As one of the original dreadnoughts, the D-18 has captured the hearts of players since the early 1930s.
From Elvis to David Crosby, the D-18 has been in the hands of legendary players for decades.
Similar to the D-28 (without rosewood), this D-18 sounds incredibly warm and loud compared to many other dreadnought guitars.
The woods are nicely played in and the guitar has a charming woody sound.
It incredibly combines great dynamics and volume with the mellow nuance that can only come from a great vintage guitar.
This guitar is everything a vintage guitar lover could want.
This Martin D-18 is perfectly adjusted and plays very well with a low string action and a straight neck.
The guitar is in very good condition, it has been professionally repaired and the neck has been reset - all work has been well done and the guitar plays like butter.
A K&K pickup is installed, which works very well.
The guitar comes with a newer case.
