Default Tell me what you think after a week or so!

Looks like the same as the one I just got. It is the lightest guitar I can remember. And I started another thread about how I find the neck to amplify every movement of my thumb and hand on the back of the neck.

Maybe it's just mine or just me.

Good luck!

Very nice. I like mine a lot also.

00018's can sound a little "boxy" when brand new, but will open up beautifully given some time and a lot of playing.

I have one also. I noticed when buying mine that many new Martins, including the 000-18 2014 come with a two piece neck. Mine has a solid one piece neck. Check your own.

Gorgeous! Congratulations.
Man, I LOVE open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs.
Enjoy it!
