Beautiful guitars both. I have a J-45 and a D-28, so love the Gibson/Martin combo.

Here's another vote for "great pair!" I particularly love the 000-18, as the good ones are to me the best single voice out there in Guitarland. Julian Lage has been playing one for that reason. And for rhythm and accompaniment, the J45 is unique and great. Too bad you can't play both at the same time, because I'll bet they work great together.

I wouldn't kick either one of those out of bed. Does the 000-18 have that v-neck though? I'm not sure how easily I could adapt to that.

No V neck, just the low oval profile.

Well after a week playing intensely, the 000-18 just wasn't doing it for me, so in an act of utter financial folly, traded it today for this absolute belter of a guitar.




Wonderful little 00-15m with factory Fishman. So lively compared with the slightly boxy triple O. Beautifully put together and brilliant to play. It's new, so can't wait for the strings to darken a little and that bridge needs a little lemon oil to calm the somewhat bright hue. Spectacular effort from Nazareth.

And that's me done ����
