I present to you a guitar so alluring it will disable your ability to comprehend the written word.  Perhaps it will even enhance your sense of smell?  Who knows?  The science is fuzzy.  It will definitely make you a snappier dresser, on this we can all agree.

The ancient Greeks considered the 1958 Martin 00-18G to be the epitome of folk style guitars.  Of course, they pronounced if eppy-tomb, so were they idiots or geniuses?  Again...fuzzy.

The recently deployed Webb telescope has discovered what appears to be a fleet of 1958 Martin 00-18Gs off of the shoulder of Orion, no doubt serenading all those attack ships as they succumb to their fiery slumber.  Time to buy….this guitar.

It was recently revealed that the monolith from Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey was not “full of stars,” as was previously reported, but was in fact full of…you guessed it…caterpillars!!  And each of those caterpillars longed to go home and play their own personal 1958 Martin 00-18G, but Mr. Kubrick’s, shall we say, obsession, with excessive reshoots is fairly legendary, and the lifespan of a caterpillar is only about a month.  Yes, yes, obviously I’m aware of the whole metamorphosis thing, but come on now, it just isn’t the same is it?  Plus, who knows if you’ll go moth and burn up in some dude’s porch light or go butterfly and spend your days being chased by children.  Either way, you won’t be playing your 1958 Martin 00-18G, that’s for damn sure!!   Don’t be like those caterpillars, don’t miss the opportunity to play your OWN 1958 Martin 00-18G while you still can.

In conclusion, there is no shipping on this item, it is local pickup only, I’m not interested in trades, I’ve thrown in some absurdities and movie references for good measure, and you want to own this guitar.

1958 00-18G, Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides.  Lots of dings, scratches and finish blemishes but completely crack free.  The action is 3mm treble and bass.  Original tuners which work well.

The bridge was apparently re-glued at one point as there is a splinter of wood missing in front of it as noted in pics.

Newer hard shell case.
