Martin 000-18 Modern Deluxe Acoustic Guitar in Natural 2840897

Regular price $3,799.00 Sale

The New Modern Deluxe Series from Martin Guitar combines some tried and true features with modern specs resulting one of the most playable Martin's ever made.


This is a 000-28 Modern Deluxe with East Indian rosewood back and sides along with a VTS Sitka Spruce Top. This wood pairing has lasted for centuries and inspired thousands along the way.

If you prefer a thin neck on an Acoustic, you will probably like the way this one feels. It doesn't have that classic Martin chunk to it, in fact, it feels a bit more Taylor-esque. Thanks to a bit of asymmetry, I found I could do a few things that I had trouble with larger necks. 24.9" scale combines with a 1.75" nut width for a slightly slinky feel compared to a typical Martin Dreadnaught.

The top is made from Sitka Spruce and then given Martin's VTS treatment. Basically this is a way of cooking or heating the wood so that its moisture content is lower (more stable) and on a cellular level, the wood looks more like a naturally aged piece of lumber. Pretty cool! So cool in fact that most manufacturers are offering some sort of cooking, roasting, chocolat-ing, VTS'ing, whatever you wanna call it!

The Music Gallery of Highland Park is proud to be an authorized Martin Guitar Dealer. Blending their Vintage Recipes with modern Manufacturing has given guitar players the best guitars Martin can make. These instruments have never been more playable, more consistent or more righteously priced. Stop but the shop to check out our full inventory of Martin and Martin Custom Shop Acoustic Guitars!
