This Nashville Guitar Company D Mahogany from 2011 reflects Marty Lanham’s thoughtful craftsmanship and genuine ear for the sound and feel of pre-war American guitars. With years of experience working on vintage instruments, Marty understands the subtle details that make these guitars so special, from their responsive feel and woody midrange to the way they open up and respond to a player’s touch. This dreadnought is a gorgeous, understated take on the classic Martin D-18, capturing that familiar voice and character in a carefully handcrafted instrument. The tone is loud and lush, with a strong, balanced midrange, clear articulation, and the warmth and depth that make a great mahogany dreadnought so appealing. The neck is comfortable and ergonomic, inviting you to settle in and play for hours. After more than a decade of playing and natural wear, this guitar has developed the comfortable, broken-in feel that players love, while remaining in great overall condition with its cosmetic and structural integrity intact. It’s a wonderful example of Marty’s ability to take inspiration from the pre-war greats and build an instrument that feels authentic, personal, and ready to be played. Comes HSC and NGC spec sheet.
