Default 2016 Cotten C-18: SOLD

Nov 26th Price Drop: $1700 shipped

Selling this guitar only because I need the money. This is easily one of the best 18 style guitars I've ever played. May very well be the best. For sure the most responsive with an amazing clarity to the notes.
All of this stuff is subjective, but it really is amazing how well this guitar plays. A far better guitar than I am a player, that's for sure!!
Sold a 57 D-18 before listing this one.

Torrified Sitka Spruce Top
Mahogany Back and Sides
Waverly Tuners

By my measurement:

Standard scale length
1 11/16" nut
2 5/16" string spacing

This guitar is as light as a feather and already sounds 50 years old. Sounds like an old vintage Martin. That's how I'd describe her. Amazing tone and plays easy up and down the neck. Very, very responsive.
Has a sort of Tobacco Burst finish.

Comes with hard shell case. Near mint condition. Only marks I can see are a couple of indents on the back of the headstock. Very tiny.

$old shipped and paypalled to anywhere in Canada or USA with tracking and insurance.

This is probably the most insane deal in the classifieds!
Gary Cotton makes great guitars!

Good luck with the sale.

Thanks for the bump, and the feedback. I agree 100% on the Gary Cotten comment. His guitars take a back seat to nothing out there, and this one has it in spades!

Someone will be a very happy player....
