      ​@victormendoza871 what do you mean the frets "missing the outline of the neck"...? As in they were wore down under the high and low E strings? Or....?
      Either way, a old Martin like that is definitely woth having a re-fret job done. Should be able to get it done for a few hundred bucks.

    I have a 2005 D-18GE that I bought new. It has been excellent and provides much joy. Perhaps it's an exception. Perhaps it's the Waverley open back nickel tuners or the Adirondack top and bracing. It could be the Brazilian rosewood head plate or ebony fretboard and long bridge with fossilized ivory nut and saddle and stamped back headstock, but I think the magic is in the C F Martin IV signature...lol

    I own one from the early 70's, but its older. My only complaint is no truss rod. They are finger eaters so and adjustments must be done to the nut and bridge, but that is limited. I am so thinking about having a trussed neck put on mine.
    Mine also came with no serial number but hasnt been tampered with, so it was a factory miss or a luthier project. Not sure. I have owned it since 72 and my friend owned it for about 5 years. It is in its blue hardshell Martin case and will never sell it. My kid probably will after I die🤷

Mine has an Ebony fingerboard and bridge that one your holding clearly has a Rosewood fingerboard. Maybe because I got it in Philadelphia ( where I live ) and closer to Nazareth, PA it was a little cheaper ?? Idk but it was my Dream guitar !!! I was torn between the D-28 and the D-18 but I didn't like the looks of the D-28 with the white binding and Rosewood back and sides so I chose the D-18 it sounds and plays even better then when I got it. !!!!

    My Yamaha is made of equal and better materials, has a great onboard pickup, and captures that same sound for 1/2 the price of a D18.
    I buy US when I can, but will buy Japanese, Canadian, or Made in Mexico as well. The quality is there.

Gorgeous guitar that I plan on sticking with as my main guitar and passing it down eventually. Lately I’ve seen them sell for 2,200$-2,900$ which is bonkers and still wouldn’t trade for a 28, tho I would love to have. Been looking for another guitar to tour with and I rlly dig the older Yamaha FG-180 Red Labels. Elliott Smith used a Taiwan made one as his main instrument. If I don’t get a D-15 I was thinking one of those but I’m gonna check out more Yamaha’s cause the price/quality are too nice to pass up at this point in my career.

    Yup- got mine in ‘74. Spruce top is a beautiful amber color now. Grover closed tuners and the loud, blue Martin logo “steal me” case from back in the day. D-18 is a finger picker’s dream in a dreadnaught platform. Sounds great for Paul Simon, Bert Jansch, Happy Traum, Stephen Grossman arrangements and vocal accompaniment for early Elvis P hits. However it’ll never match the boom of the D-28, which is great for CSNY songs and bluegrass.

    There is no better guitar in the world than the Taylor 814ce, but I like the Martin d-18 as a second guitar in pack.

      Do you smoke cigarettes? Do you go out for drinks weekly with friends, perhaps go see a movie? Dinner at a restaurant? Everyone can afford this guitar, some simply have to make a few sacrifices in order to attain it. Other's don't. End result is the same.

    Even if you don't play guitar, you should spend $1000 dollars on a chunk of wood you'll never use? Really? Why not say all guitarists should own a D-18? Be precise. Otherwise you just piss people off.

    • @JeremySheppard
      @JeremySheppard  Год назад

      If you'd own it, it isn't a piece of wood. It's a priceless guitar. Also, this is for people who are committed to playing guitar. There are certainly amateurs and people dabbing with playing, but for people who love guitar, this is a rite of passage.

This clip?So if you love your guitar, you have to be a professional guitarist? I love my guitars and have been playing for a lot longer than you, but I have never ben good enough to be a professional guitarist. I am never likely to spend $1000 dollars on a guitar. Especially as I live in the UK.
