2015 Martin D-18

Many brands make their own versions but you just can't out-Martin Martin, though they may certainly try!

In on consignment is a humble and lovely D-18 from 2015. Martin’s Standard Series guitars are known for their unwavering, high-quality craftsmanship, premium materials, of which this D-18 is a shining example. Featuring solid quartersawn tonewoods, bone nut/saddle, and a Sitka spruce soundboard, the D-18 has undergone recent updates that enhance both its performance and appearance. The sleek, modern neck combined with vintage aesthetics gives it a unique appeal. The addition of scalloped, forward-shifted X bracing and an ebony bridge allows for a fuller, more resonant tone that balances the bright, dry mahogany sound with greater warmth and richness. 

A full frequency of bellowing lows, rich midrange, and brilliant chime in the high end. 

This guitar is in Excellent condition. There are some finish imperfections on the back of the neck that result in a streak of very small bumps along some of the grain lines, but this guitar is such a cannon- they are really hard to notice while you're playing.
