MARTIN 00-18H (1941)

..to our complete listing of Vintage & Used Instruments - Martin Guitars

MARTIN 00-18H (1941): VG-EC, this is the actual guitar, owned by Geoff Muldaur and featured in the spring 2009 edition of "The Fretboard Journal", that was the inspiration for his return to active duty in music and the template for the Martin "GEOFF MULDAUR / 00-18H ARTIST EDITION," sunburst Adirondack spruce top with scalloped braces, mahogany back and sides, 12 fret mahogany neck with Brazilian rosewood fingerboard, 20 frets, pearl dot inlays, tortoise plastic binding with b-i-b-i-b top purfling, old 18-style rosette, original tortoise plastic pickguard, slotted peghead with Brazilian rosewood overlay and original decal, replacement Waverly/Sloane 3-on-plate tuners with engraved bronze base-plate and ivoroid buttons, 24.9" scale, newer 1-7/8" bone nut, rosewood (not Brazilian) replacement bridge with bone through saddle, there are two repaired side cracks. Originally a Hawaiian guitar, like so many of these it has been converted to Spanish style and the neck has been reset, reshaped and refretted as part of the process of the change from Hawaiian-style playing, there is an ebony bridge cap, some playwear around the soundhole and on the edges but the finish is original, and lest we forget, the guitar sounds and plays great!!! Also included are a letter from Geoff Muldaur to Stan Werbin, our owner and president concerning the guitar, and a signed glossy copy of the photo from "The Fretboard Journal," a copy of the spring 2009 issue of TFJ and the new Texas Sheiks CD on which Geoff plays the guitar, a Highlander pickup included but not installed (pickup works with stereo chord to Highlander remote power box, not included), on consignment, with newer Martin / Geib-style HSC (green lining) (SN:77702)
