Need some insight. Thanks in advance.
Am considering buying a Martin D-18 (reissue) used. Dont know how old it is but looks in very good shape. SOunds great too. Mars is listing it at $865...but are willing go as low as $675. Heres the deal. The guitar ahs no truss rod. The action is to high for my taste. My question is: Can the action on these things be lowered with out the truss rod? I know they can sand down the bridege saddle, but, is there any other way to lower the action on these? Or are D-18s typically guitars with high action?
Any comments are appreciated.
Gracias.
