Default NGD: 00-18

I've had this one for a few days and I'm very happy. Like a mini D-18 but with almost the same volume and tone, just a bit smaller sounding.

Nice get. These are understated classics. I sold one to make rent back when I was flat broke. Wish I had it back!

Congrats on the NGD. I have a 00-18 and it's my go to guitar for fingerpicking. I had a 000-18 and the 00-18 for about four months and I ended up selling the 000-18 as the 00-18 outperformed the 000-18 as far as fingerpicking goes.

Love the 00. Was thinking to downsize to one from the 000 now that I have a dread. The ones I have played have been amazing.

I think that I could definitely "bond" with a 00-18. That's a lovely guitar!

Congrats on a very cool guitar.
I bought one of them last year to accompany a 00-15...
Really love them both.

Congrats on a great guitar - I love my 00-18, and find it much more versatile than people might think.
