1. (2009) Custom 000-18 Based on Norman Blake $2999. Beautiful sunburst. Excellent to very good condition. There is no pick-guard and there are pick marks. There is a ding on the front near the bridge - I could not get a great shot (I can try again for interested buyers). The back of one corner of the headstock is dinged - other than that guitar is clean.

Next up 2006 Martin D18 Authentic 1937 model $3999(ON HOLD/Sale Pending)

I am the original owner of this 2006 D18 Authentic. When I purchased it, I had my choice between two and I chose this one - it had a powerful, crystal clear sound.

This is a special version of an outstanding model - also light as a feather and they're not making them anymore.

This guitar has had no modifications - in fact, I never inserted the endpin (which is in the case).

It really is in Excellent shape and though there are a few small dings you would have to look very hard to find them.

Please email me [email protected] for more photos or to discuss further

The original case is included.

Thanks - Phil
