The Merrill family is well know for building strong Dreadnought guitars that can light up a room. Well here we have their first ever Relic C-18, a powerhouse featherweight that will knock your socks off! Built on faithful 1937 D-18 specs with a hand carved neck and braces, hot hide glue, Red Spruce and Ancient Honduras Mahogany. They even went so far as to find the authentic Sea Snail dot inlays, Brown tortoise celluloid for the binding and end-wedge, Cloth side reinforcement strips, etc. We think this guitar came out amazing, it really looks and sounds like it’s been played for 70+ years. Well done!
**NOTE: This one sold before we could even list it, but call us today and we can get Jim and the gang to make one just for you! We are now proud to offer Merrill Guitars here at Dream Guitars!
Jim Merrill said they were hesitant to Relic a brand new guitar, but in the end everyone agrees it is outstanding! The look is amazingly cool and authentic looking and gives it a real vibe. But it's the tone that blew me away. This guitar seems to weigh nothing and really feels like an old friend. I guess I shoudn't be surprised since the Merrill gang builds with such passion and pride! Can't wait for our next Merrill to come in! 
Besides looking like it's been played for years and years, this guitar plays and sounds really great. You definitely wouldn't have to worry about putting a scratch in it. | Scale Length | 25.2 in |
