  • Year: 1954
  • Manufacturer: Martin
  • Model: 5-18
  • Case: Original Soft
  • Color: Natural
  • Condition: Very Good
  • Description: Very nice small-bodied Martin with built-in pickup. Overall the guitar is in excellent structural condition with no cracks other than a couple very minor ones radiating off of the input jack (see photo). As far as we can tell, the pickup system is not original (Martin made some guitars with electronics built in, but these were designated by an "E" after the model number, which this guitar does not have). There is a moderate amount of honest play wear, but nothing beyond the usual for a guitar of this age. Comes with a possibly original chipboard case in decent condition.
