My D-MA is the best D-18 style guitar I've ever owned or played. GLWS

Great looking guitar! I have a new D-CMA (Cuban Mahogany, had less than 2 months) and I feel your pain on the vintage spacing. I wasn't sure and a little frustrated at first, and I have two other guitars with the same or similar specs. I did have a setup done and it made a big difference for me. There were a couple of issues with the neck/frets/setup when I got it (nothing major), which is pretty much unheard of for his guitars. Preston and his staff are very easy to work with and are very willing to help - most appreciated. The more I have played it the less I notice the initial issues I had with the spacing.

Preston and his staff make a truly great guitar. GLWS!
