This used 2006 Martin 000-18 Custom is a phenomenal guitar. It has a slightly shorter scale at 24.9" and playing it is a real joy. This is a 000 but the sound is anything but small. The Adirondack top paired with the Mahogany back and sides deliver beautiful tone with clear, ringing highs and real depth. The Ad top just delivers more and more as you dig in. The size of this makes it one you won't put down for a second—really great for fingerstyle, but strummers will find this one to be quite addictive, as well, with plenty of power. This is in Very Good condition and the top has some nicks and small dings (see photo for most significant one near lower treble bout)—it has been played, but never abused. The frets are in fantastic shape too. Very nice opportunity to save about a grand over a brand new Martin and you won't mind playing this one out. This Martin 000-18 Custom is a great one. Original hard case included.
