Martin D-18 Acoustic Dreadnought Left-Handed

I bought a lefty D-18 2 years back - haven't regretted it for a moment.  Being a lefty, I tried out the righties at the local music stores before deciding on the D-18.  Sounds great.  Plays great.  Versatile.  All the good things!        I play mostly Kottke-style finger picking, some strumming, and when pressed, flatpick.  The D-18 plays all wonderfully.  Others I meet have shown me their more expensive guitars, and they may look sweeter and fancier than the D-18, but I've yet to see one that plays or sounds as well.       Just for your information, I installed an LR Baggs I-Beam (active) - also highly recommended for this guitar.      My only criticism is that sometimes a cut-away model is needed for the high notes.  Hence, the "9" instead of "10" under Features.
