The Story

OM-18 Authentic 1933 Acoustic

As part of the Martin Authentic Series, this is the OM-18 Authentic 1933 acoustic, based on a real 1933 OM-18 loaned to Martin from Fred Oster of Vintage Instruments. The guitar reminds us of everything we love about vintage Martins! Everything about this guitar recreates the original; the hide glue construction, Vintage Tone System utilized for the top and bracing system, the authentic 1933 neck barrel and heel, and stamped Martin logo on the back of the headstock. If you're looking for vintage Martin tone with modern dependability, you can't go wrong with a Martin Authentic Series instrument!

Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
