Default ***PRICE DROP $2,799*** Martin Om-18 1933 Authentic (2014)

Hi all,

I am selling my Martin OM-18 1933 Authentic, non-VTS 2014 model. I have loved this guitar for the past few years but am letting it go, and at a price for the AGF community.

https://www.martinguitar.com/guitars...uthentic-1933/

Price is $2,799 w/hardshell case + shipping (no trades, firm).

Condition

The guitar is in great player shape 9/10 in terms of cosmetics - a small half inch light ding on the front of the guitar, a very light rash from a buckle on the back, and there are some light pick scratches on/around the pick guard (mostly on the pick guard), the first three frets are 90% perfect, and the rest are 100%. And I also had an LR Baggs anthem pickup professionally put in ($200 value) as a soundboard transducer - no modifications made inside the guitar.. The guitar sounds wonderful through an amp. The case does have some significant scratches on it, and I'll post a picture, however they are cosmetic.

Here are two clips that capture the magic of the instrument (recorded on an iPhone) --

Clip 1 (solo guitar)


Clip 2 (Played through amp/loop pedal, iPhone caught the guitar live and the loop at the same time)

I met with forum member SKYHIGH today and he can vouch for the condition of the instrument at being a 9/10. This is a great players guitar.

Price is $2,799 + shipping. Looking to get this out by the weekend! Thank you.

Indeed I had chance to audition this guitar. Sounded great and condition was great for most part with minor signs of usage. I wish I was in the situation to pull the trigger.

Cheers!

I don't usually push a guitar when I have the same model listed on the AGF for sale at the same time, but. . . .

these are truly great instruments!
