"Well, mine's was built in 2004 and bought in 2008 - I've had it just over two years. Plenty scratches and flaky laquer now - nothing major, mostly pick marks and scratches from having great fun... :O)"

"Steven, cheers for the photo's very nice guitar you have! its nice to see another martin with the bearclaw marks. I think the bearclaws add 'character' to the guitars as dents and scratches do, cant wait to get the 1st dent/scratch…"

"Hi Chris, Congrad's - the D-18 is a fine guitar :O) A couple of years ago I was in a similar situation to you (same budget / one guitar opportunity) and managed to find a D-18V. Mind you, I had to travel all the way from Cornwall to Cardiff…"

"Hey Steven, yes I bought my Martin D18 early April, i couldnt be happier with it. I thought i had made a mistake due to the marks on the top, it took me a while to understand the marks on the top were 'bearclaw' markings after a wee bit of…"

"Hi Chris, you've maybe bought a guitar by now, so this might be too late, but... For a one-in-a-lifetime Martin on your budget, I'd strongly recommend looking for a used guitar (better spec for less money than new). Also, check out the…"

ganon replied to Chris's discussion New Guitar in the group Scottish flatpickers
"Cool. Given you price limitation, the straight D-18 should be a great choice, especially if you've had a chance to play it first. It will only get better with age. (With much research and trials you can probably find other guitars as good in…"

Tom Faux replied to Todd McFarland's discussion What brand do you play?
"I recently came across a steel string parlor guitar made by P. Benson, in Minneapolis.  It's really a nice little instrument--well built, comfortable, very much like an old Martin 00-18 (mahogany, slotted headstock, pyramid bridge, ladder…"

Marc Schlotthauer replied to Todd McFarland's discussion What brand do you play?
"My gear is much better than my skill - for straight flatpickin', I play a Martin D-18 Authentic 1937. My go-to guitar for just about everything else (and it flatpicks just fine, thank you) is my Huss & Dalton D-RH with a Red Spruce top.…"
