USED Martin / D-18 Modern Deluxe Natural [12]

The Martin D18 Modern Deluxe has arrived.
While retaining the classic D-18 character—with its “crisp midrange and dry, woody, lively tone”—it now features the rich harmonics and long sustain of a D-28, thanks to Liquid Metal Pins and a carbon plate. It’s a versatile instrument that’s perfect not only for vocal accompaniment (strumming) but also for modern solo guitar and fingerstyle playing.
As for its condition, there are overall signs of wear, including scratches, dents, and some tarnish on the metal parts.
Additionally, the guitar has undergone refretting (using HOSCO HF-M1 medium-size frets) and a nut replacement, both of which involved fingerboard adjustments; however, the neck currently exhibits slight twist. Furthermore, there are signs of repair on the fingerboard surface near the low frets, and the instrument shows general signs of use.
