Pre-war Martin D-18 Appraisal Video

I'm sure many of you are fans of Antiques Road Show on PBS television. Every once in a while someone will bring in a cool vintage guitar to be appraised. In this episode a 1937 Martin D-18 was brought in for the experts to weigh in on.
Here's a link to the appraisal video. There are some good close-ups of the guitar and the appraiser does a little strumming towards the end. The sound is just amazing.

If you're looking to buy a modern replica of a pre-war D-18 but don't have the cash for a Martin D-18A, check out the Blueridge BR-240. A very well made, well designed guitar that will get you in the ball park sound-wise for a lot less cash.
