This Martin D-18 Satin Acoustic Guitar in Natural is brand new and includes its full warranty and original hardshell case.
The warm, focused sound of the Martin D-18 has withstood the test of time. The perfect compliment to the human singing voice, the D-18 is the perfect choice for the singer/songwriter or for anyone who records acoustic guitar and wants premier tone.
A Sitka Spruce top is paired with Mahogany for a focused, articulate, and powerful sound. The D-18 is favored in the studio for how easy it is to record and by many singer/strummers as it supports vocals in a less-distracting-than-rosewood kind of way. Scalloped, forward-shifted braces made of source allow this guitar to pump out sound efficiently.
The neck is made from Select Hardwood which usually means Mahogany or Sapele. It is carved to a Modified Low Oval Profile and features the High-Performance Taper. This neck feels instantly familiar allowing you to get right to playing. The fingerboard is made from Ebony and has a 16" radius. Old Styl 18 Fingerboard Inlays from ABalone add a touch of class.
Understated looks, timeless tone. The warm tone of mahogany and authentic Sitka 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.
