NEW ARRIVAL From Martin’s highly acclaimed Vintage series, this 00-18V is a real looker. It features a Sitka Spruce top with Mahogany back and sides, has scalloped bracing, an Ebony fretboard and bridge, plus bone nut and saddle, and vintage style Waverley open-geared tuners. All of these appointments are signs of real quality. Tonally it’s fantastic, the Sitka spruce has a wide tonal range with great projection making it hugely versatile, quite complex and able to handle the most subtle of playing styles. As a 13 year old guitar the tone has really matured, hinting at the vintage tone it’s modelled on. The guitar’s in very good condition, with good playability. It has an active Fishman under saddle pickup fitted and comes in its original deluxe Martin hard case.
