    One of the best sounding acoustics I’ve ever heard and I’m sure it sounds better in person. Amazing beautiful instrument

    I've got this guitar's little brother, a 1934. Mine does not have a slotted peg head and in 1934 they had the cool logo on the front of the head stock and the embossed logo on the back of the head stock. Sounds very similar to mine........beautiful.

    Great little Martin. Great job Michael. I play a CEO-5 Dread style 12 fret S/H Martin and although it’s a much newer instrument than this little O-18 it is a unique guitar in tone just like this 89 year old beauty. Oh and Michael thanks for removing your jewelry prior to play that shows great respect for that little Queen you just let talk to us all.

    How in the world is that the original finish with no checking, etc. I know that older Martin's have a more "Satin" look--not the clear, glossy finish from the seventies, for example--but the only blemish I see is a ding right at the top corner of the bridge. Where was this thing kept for the past 90 years??

    Oddly it sounds fantastic when picking , but while strumming it still sounds like a ukelele , that's not to say it sounds bad , a Martin is a Martin , snd in the hands of a pro like Lemmo , it can sound great , a beautiful guitar in it's own right , but the best ever acoustic on GOTD??? , not even close. thanks guys.

If ur remembering just for the sake of the day that's a bit more problematic and anyone who does and u should think about it.and u can't be grateful or in awe of them for one single day of a year and think that's a good thing to do than just not remember them
