Another quality Guitar from Lovies Guitars!
Lovies Guitars is excited to present this Vintage! 1962 Martin 00-18C Classical Nylon Acoustic Guitar finished in Natural. Built by Martin, the 00-18C is one of the company’s most respected vintage nylon-string models, combining traditional classical construction with Martin’s legendary craftsmanship and warm, articulate tonal character.
This 00-18C delivers a beautifully balanced nylon-string voice with rich mids, smooth rounded highs, and excellent note clarity. The comfortable 00 body size gives the guitar a focused, intimate response perfect for fingerstyle, classical, folk, and recording work. Decades of natural aging have opened up the tone wonderfully, providing impressive responsiveness and vintage warmth.
The Natural finish displays authentic vintage checking and honest wear throughout, enhancing the guitar’s character and vintage appeal while remaining structurally solid.
This guitar is all original (OG), free from cracks and breaks, and comes complete with its Original Hardshell Case (OHSC).
Condition: 9/10 – Very Good. Very clean for its age with finish checking on the front and some on the back, various indents on the top, scratches and dings on the back, smooth wear on the back of the neck, finish checking on the back of the headstock, and various small dings on the headstock. Structurally excellent and free from cracks or breaks.
