Prewar magic: 1936 Martin 000-18 shade top. Restored by T.J. Thompson, fresh setup by our own repair staff, and decade upon decade of sweet, sweet tone. This 000-18 is incredible; 3lbs 11oz, shade top intact, and playing like butter. We consider ourselves exceedingly fortunate to be able to offer this Martin up to you. In 1936, this is one of only four of the several hundred 000-18 models to be built with a shade top. Adirondack Spruce top, Mahogany back and sides with standard 18-style trim and Waverly tuners.

Vintage Martin joy! That dry, punchy sound we all know and love. This one was gone over by our own repair shop as well as T.J. Thomson in the past so it’s completely up-to-date and playing wonderfully. If you want a vintage guitar that needs nothing but for you to play it, this is for you.
