For Sale Or Trade: Martin OM-18 Authentic 1933 w/ OHSC - SOLD (NEW PHOTOS and REVISED TRADES!)

Gorgeous. I played one of these a couple of years ago and it was the best sounding guitar in a shop full of boutiques. Too bad I lean towards short scale.

Likewise. I would have snatched this up in a second if it were short scale.

This shouldn't last long!

I lean to short scales these days as well. Probably the only real reason I’m letting it go. All my electrics are 25 inch scale or less and the acoustic I play often is 24.9.

These are really underpriced compare to the rest of the authentics in my opinion. I think if Martin ever brought it back we would see a decent price jump in what they would charge this time around based on the price of the 00-18A for example.

Looks like it should be a warranty repair, no?

Yeah, I spoke with Martin today and it seems like I will be bringing this one back into them when they open the repair facility again. Hopefully sometime this summer.
