Steve Martin used to do a routine where he gave advice as to "How to get a million dollars, and not pay taxes..." - it involved, first, "get a million dollars, then...", when the tax man comes calling, say 2 simple words - "I forgot..."

He also extended it to telling the judge "I forgot armed robbery was illegal..." ;-)

Yep.....that's a lovely 000. It looks just like my '72 000-28

Enjoy the D18.  It looks good as usual as a Martin should.

Phil, that's not a D-18, but I'd love to get my hands on it.  It's a beaut.

Phil, two simple words have always worked for me...I buy what I want and then when the mortgage company comes a-callin' I just say my two simple words "I forgot"...I forgot that we still owed on the house...try it...with just a slight tweak, you can get it to work for everything, except with the IRS that is!!!

Congrats on the new D-18 Jud!  I played a vintage D-18 at Mass St Music, and I would have loved to get it.  Why do I never have enough money to buy what I really, really need???  "Honey, can we skip a few mortgage payments?"

Recently got myself a new D-18 with the 1 3/4 inch nut and performing artist neck ... came close to getting the D-28P which also has the PA neck, but the warmth of mahogany and the forward shifted scalloped bracing on the D-18 was more appealing than the straight braced rosewood.  Street price was about the same for both.

FG - that's a nice HD-28-LSV.  I love my HD-28!  I don't think you can go wrong with one of those.  I think they make great guitars for just about any style.  Yes, they are loud, but you can control the volume with your picking style.
