FS 1953 Martin 000-18 + Martin HSC. Reduced price.
Jungle_Face_Jake
Frets: 7
NOW REDUCED TO £7K, NO OFFERS.
This '53 Martin 000-18 is one of my personal guitars and has been in my custody for over 20 years now.
It’s all original with no repairs and no neck reset, which is quite a common mod. The action is very good and along with the, typical for the period, soft V neck profile makes for quite an effortless acoustic to play.
It’s one of the so called ‘mystery top’ ‘53 Martins. A large number of ‘53’s had either Adirondack spruce or European spruce tops as opposed to the usual Sitka spruce. This one appears to be Adirondack and sounds great. It has a tight but sweet focused tone with loads of upper mid clarity and projects really well. It’s a great recording acoustic which naturally sits well in the mix without any EQ tweaking.
1953 is one of the sought after years amongst Martin collectors for the above reasons. Anyway I need to raise some cash so am reluctantly moving this one on. I’d accept £7,500 on it as a private sale. That price is firm and is below current market value as I'm hoping for a relatively quick sale..
Comes in an early 70's Martin hard shell case. Send me a message if you'd like to check it out or need any further details.

One thing for this listing though, maybe you should edit the post at the top so it is the acoustic section perhaps?
Oof! I have an ambertone 000-18 golden era that I adore, but this must be utterly mind blowing!
If only I had the coin!
Have a bump.
