About This Guitar
1979 Martin D-18 #413970
This is a fantastic player grade D-18! It shows all the signs of player wear and patina!! Pick marks above the soundhole and below the pickguard. Stray dings, buckle rash on the back, indentations throughout.
A bridge plate saver has been installed on the oversized Rosewood Bridgeplate. The bridge appears original but has been shaved down a little to accommodate the saddle height. There is slight cracking between some of the bridge pin holes. One corner of the bridge has a gap, but the bridge is completely seat otherwise.
The original black pickguard is replaced.
The original case is in good working condition!
It is setup for standard play with Medium Strings!
