Northwest Vintage Guitars presents a vintage 1980 Martin D-18 Dreadnought with a fresh neck reset, leveled frets, and a pro setup from our luthier.  The venerable D-18 has been the favorites of many for decades.  25.4" scale, 14" radius, 4.16 lbs.  This received a neck reset in our workshop and theres a shim onder the extension.  It has perfect factory spec action, great saddle height, and it's ready to go.  Comes safely packed and fully insured in the Martin hard case in the photos.  

The nut measures 1.73", neck depth is .84"-1.06" at the 1st and 12th frets respectively.  It's Martin's comfy C profile that feels great in the hand.  Freshly strung with 12-53 D'Addario Bronze strings.  The neck is straight and the relief is currently offering optimum playability.  Solid Spruce top, Solid mahogany back and sides, and a one piece Mahogany neck.  There are a few scratches and dings as pictured.  It remains in excellent playable condition with no dead spots.
