Item specifics
Condition: NewBrand: Martin
New floor model Martin D18V. Srl#1191827. New with warranty & case. May have some cosmetic imperfections due to handling however this guitar is in nearly perfect condition.
 
The D18V is a very comfortable guitar to play. Due to the V neck it fits in your hand perfectly, and because of the nut spacing its really great for fingerpicking. Tonewise this guitar is more of a warm/dark tone. It has a lot of volume and really defined low end due to the scalloped bracing. The low end is growly almost. Oh and this guitar in particular has a nice, low action, even for a Martin.
