Used, in mint condition - Martin Custom Shop Authentic D-18 Custom Expert Model CE-13 2024 w/ OHSC. SN: 2833337. This guitar was purchased new through the Music Emporium this year, was played briefly by the original owner and then traded-in here at Mill River Music. It is a stunning D-18 that is a remarkable tribute to a vintage original, forward-brace model. Beautiful woody tones in every register with the warmth and proud voice of a true American classic with a comfortable feel in hand. Martin did a tasteful job with the aged, thin nitrocellulose lacquer and is one of the most successful relics we have seen yet. We are an authorized Martin Dealer and Service Center here at MRM and this guitar includes our shop guarantee! From Martin:
