Martin 5-18 Terz guitar, 1956, Spruce -Mahogany, OSC, EC
1957 Martin 5-18, serial #149614, 3/4 sized and scaled 'Terz' guitar. It's a very small guitar, but 'full grown' in terms that's it's not a 'travel guitar' or 'kids guitar' although it would suit both purposes. Many familiar with Martin guitars try to find a nice vintage example and I seriously think most great players brought up with Martin guitars, have one in their collection, among them Neil Young and of course Marty Robbins is famous for it. These 5-18 are quite rare and it's not often they are offered up for sale. This guitar is designed as a Terz guitar with the intention of tuning 1 1/2 step up to G-tuning. This all original 1956 guitar is in excellent condition with only the play-wear you would expect from a guitar this old, but it's totally crack-free and there is no misuse, comes with excellent action and playability, and is structurally very sound and all original. The sound is simply awesome, unmatched with anything that comes to mind, but if you want to compare, it's somewhere between a Mandolin and 0 size model, amazing fullness and projection for such a small guitar! Width at nut: 41,3mm, finger spacing at bridge: 55mm, scale: 540mm. The case that comes with the guitar is original but needs attention.

The Fellowship Of Acoustics, Netherlands 
ABOUT US
I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
