R. Taylor Style 1: Flame Maple SOLD

R. Taylor Style 1: Flame Maple SOLD

Is there anything better looking than a highly figured Flame maple? The maple neck and body binding along with the flamed center strip augment the beauty of this guitar without drawing your eyes away from the wood grain. Ok it looks great, but how does it sound? I am a self admitted rosewood fan but R. Taylor has once again proved to me that a maple guitar can be bright and sparkle without lacking a solid bass response and strong note fundamental. Great looks and a very appealing tone, this guitar has it all!

This Martin D18 from 1961 is a players guitar with a slight bridge lift, two repaired top cracks and two replaced frets. The finish has lots of wear and tear and bleached out white sections. The set up is good and the guitar feels nice to play. It comes with a generic black hardshell case.
