Here's a fantastic Custom Shop from Martin, built to an Authentic flavor. I loved the original 000-18 Authentic, and these new Custom Shop models are somehow better. Featuring an adjustable truss rod, this is one that you can keep for a lifetime. It's super warm and woody, with a delightful "glow" in the mids, and fat trebles too. Plays great, with lots of saddle remaining. Comes with original hardshell case.

Cosmetically, this guitar is in very good to excellent condition. There's a small ding on the side of the neck, next to the nut, pictured. Also a squiggly indent on the back, but it was too faint to photograph. Otherwise just very minor signs of handling.
