This is a nice example of a Martin D-18 from 1972, all original and in excellent playing condition. The finish shows small dings, scrapes and dents, with some pick wear around the soundhole rim but no heavy wear. The bridge has been reglued and the neck reset, making for an excellent player. A strap button has been added at the heel. This is not one of the rarer Martins but a solid player with a sound that gets better and better as the years roll on. Includes the famous blue molded plastic case that was a trademark of the period. Overall Excellent - Condition.
