Simply put, these GE braced adi/hog Martins are just superb. Can't say enough good about them.
Enjoy! I do.

yeah the lawn/backyard was the reason we bought the house and we finally got the funds together to get it done. I know for some folks in other parts of the country my backyard (2000sqft) is very small. In southern california with all the new developments this is huge. I like hanging out pickin and watching the doggies run about.

Also wanted to add I was nervous becasue my direct comparison to this that I already own is a eastman e6om. Cant compare it to the d18 due to the body size.

The eastman is nice but the finish and tonal complexity is excellent on this 00018

Congrats on what I call a lifetime guitar. It is my favorite small body guitar.
