2023 Martin

D-18 Aged Authentic 1937

$5,500

​​

​

This 2023 Martin D-18 Aged Authentic 1937 is in like new condition.  The simulated aging and play wear are straight from the factory.

This guitar has not been set up, so you can adjust the action to your liking.   

​​

VTS Adirondack top with beautiful amber color and checking.  The simulated wear on this guitar is among the most realistic I have seen in the Aged Authentics.

1937 D-18 Authentic neck profile, which is fuller in the left hand than the D-28 Authentics (in my experience / opinion). 

 

Hand-scalloped, forward shifted X braces made of Adirondack and tucked under the bridge plate.  

​

This dreadnought will NOT disappoint.  No scratches, dents, dings or other damage.  

  

No electronics.  End pin has not even been installed yet.

​

Comes in the original Martin Authentic series factory case.  (photos of actual case are available if requested)

​​​

Smoke free, pet free, humidity controlled home.  Always stored in the case. 

 

Guitar still smells brand new.
