Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

Classic with a capital "C," folks.  Balanced but dynamic, punchy and direct but warm and sweet.  And it just doesn't get more comfortable than this!  There's a reason this model comes up any time there's any talk of 00s--give us a call today and find out why for yourself!

SP Luthier Notes: Setup

From Martin and Co.

The 00-18 is an updated version of the the popular 00-18V. A Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides are the foundation for this classic grand concert model. A modified low oval high performance neck, East Indian rosewood headplate and an ebony fingerboard and bridge complete this model and make it a guitar you will treasure for years to come.
