This ’63 000-18 has wonderful tone. It compares favorably to any post-war 000-18 we’ve played.
- All original finish, everywhere
- The guitar is crack-free. Not even a pickguard crack.
- Original Brazilian Rosewood bridge, full height. It has never been off
- original saddle as well
- Original tuners (Grover)
- Original Ivory nut
- Original bridge plate… in perfect condition… in fact, there is not even the enlarged holes you so commonly see from the ball ends of strings working through… it’s a great original small Maple bridge plate…
- Original endpin
- There is some pick wear, and some typical crazing that 60’s Martins all have
- Frets are in good shape. The first several positions show some wear… but not a lot… it does not need new frets.
