2016 Martin 00-18 Authentic 1931

A beautifully built 2016 Martin 00-18 Authentic 1931, capturing the feel, sound, and craftsmanship of one of Martin’s most revered vintage designs. Adirondack spruce with VTS, hide-glue construction, scalloped 1/4" bracing, and Madagascar rosewood trim deliver a dry, woody voice with exceptional responsiveness. This one has honest playwear and a repaired center-seam crack, but remains structurally sound and full of that warm, articulate 00 magic.

Condition: Very Good — center seam crack, dings throughout
Neck Depth: .87"–1.04"
