2015 Martin OM-18 Authentic 1933 in excellent condition, I'm always reluctant to say mint but this is close.
This is a fantastic instrument from the Martin Authentic line. Adirondack spruce top with Martin's VTS treatment.
Now discontinued the authentic series will get you as close to the pre-war Martin's as you can get without actually owning one. I bought it a couple of months ago as I was desperate to get my hands an authentic. I was looking for a short scale but as this line is rare as hens teeth I grabbed this when it became available. 
Hands down one of the top 3 acoustics I've heard/played but the full length scale means I'm not grabbing it as often as I should over my shorter scale one's and if I'm going to have this sort of money in a guitar I want it be the first guitar I reach for so I've reluctantly decided to sell/trade. 

Trades considered for similar quality short scale acoustic.
