What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent 

SP Luthier Notes: This guitar has a fossilized mamouth ivory bridge and end pins. A few frets were leveled, crowned, and polished. The truss rod and bridge were adjusted. No further work was needed

The Martin OM-18 Authentic 1933 is a breathtaking recreation of a golden-era classic, built to deliver vintage tone with remarkable depth and immediacy. Its Adirondack spruce top with VTS and hide-glue construction produces a dry, open response with stunning clarity and dynamic range, perfectly balanced by genuine mahogany back and sides. The Authentic 1933 neck carve and ebony fingerboard feel substantial yet inviting, encouraging expressive, confident playing. Finished in a rich 1932 shaded vintage gloss with period-correct details throughout, this OM is more than a guitar—it’s an heirloom-level investment designed to open up, mature, and inspire for generations.

About Manufacturer

For well over a century and a half, The Martin Guitar Company has been continuously producing acoustic instruments that are acknowledged to be the finest in the world. The Martin Guitar Company has, through the years, managed to survive with each succeeding generation from C. F. Martin, Sr.?s Stauffer influenced creations of the 1830s to recent developments introduced by C. F. Martin IV. 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.
