The new D-18 Authentic 1937 goes well beyond the
already acclaimed Golden Era D-18 in faithfully
replicating the specifications, materials and processes used in
the construction of the original pre-war D-18s.
This hand
constructed model draws its inspiration from a stellar 1937
example and employs the use of hide glue as well as a
T-shaped neck reinforcement bar. Other significant features
include an Adirondack red spruce top with circa 1937

Style 18 abalone position markers, grained ivoroid side
