Martin / D-18 Shaded Top
Very rare "Shaded Top" with only a small number of pieces produced.
This is a rare Shaded Top made in 1976.
Martin's Shaded Top refers to a special finish on the top of acoustic guitars that are part of the Martin D series.
Shaded Top also creates an antique look, as the different shades of coloring bring out the expression of the wood's annual rings.
However, Shaded Top is technically very delicate and only a very limited number of craftsmen have mastered this technique.
As a result, Shaded Top guitars are extremely rare and hard to find.
The pickguard has been replaced with the same black as the original, and the body top has a crack repair along the inside of the pickguard. The end pin holes have been extended, but the pickup is not currently mounted. The overall appearance is dignified with faint weather checks.
The tone is bright, shiny, and beautiful for a mahogany/square rod. The color of this guitar has a strong presence.
