A 00-18V with...Rosewood? Pure custom shop magic! Vintage 18 style appointments meet with all the chimey, overtoney, bassy goodness a 28 style set of tonewoods offers. This one's a player's guitar, to be sure (plenty of finish checking) but after a neck reset and complete refret from our luthier, you better believe this beauty is playing as good as or better than it was when it left the Pennsylvania in 2014. Plays like a dream and offers more low end and richness than most instruments this size. A lovable weirdo through and through!

Continuous operation under family management is a feat bordering on the remarkable, reflecting six generations of dedication to the guitarmaker?s craft. In or out of the music industry, C. F. Martin has few rivals for sheer staying power. Throughout its colorful history, the company has adapted successfully to continual changes in product design, distribution systems, and manufacturing methods. In spite of the many changes, C. F. Martin has never veered away from its initial commitment to quality. The concern for producing the finest instruments possible in 1833 is especially evident today at Martin?s expanded facility in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. The story behind one of America?s most famous guitars began on January 31, 1796, in Markneukirchen, Germany, with the birth of Christian Frederick Martin, Sr. Born into a long line of cabinet makers, Christian Frederick took up the family craft at the early age of 15, when he left his hometown and traveled to Vienna to apprentice with Johann Stauffer, a renowned guitar maker.
