Understated looks, timeless tone. The warm tone of mahogany and authentic spruce couple with resonant scalloped bracing under the hood for a sound that’s honest, authoritative, and clear. Vintage details like open-geared tuners and classic 18-style appointments pair with a modern, low profile neck for an old-soul sound in a brand-new body. The D-18 dreadnought guitar is part of the classic Martin Standard series and features a sleek, modern high performance neck for enhanced playability. The D-18 boasts a Spruce top and Mahogany back and sides. This Martin guitar is perfect for the intermediate and advanced player. The Martin D-18 has the classic tone-wood combination of Solid Spruce and Mahogany with the Spruce providing the sparkling high mids and top end frequencies while the Mahogany gives the low end resonance and sustain. The fret board and bridge have been crafted using Solid Black Ebony and this stunning acoustic instrument comes with a Martin hard shell case.
