Martin Martin D-18 Modern Deluxe Mahogany Dreadnought
Presenting the all new Martin D-18 Modern Deluxe Mahogany Dreadnought. The D-18 Modern Deluxe is a new take on Martin Vintage. This guitar is packed with custom features and modern technology that you have to see, feel, and hear for yourself. The vintage appointments include a Sitka spruce Vintage Tone System (VTS) top, a dovetail neck joint, and natural protein glue construction that give it the rich, fully aged Martin tone that has inspired generations. The look is unlike anything in Martin's production line to date with East Indian rosewood binding, stylish gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and a unique 1930s style script logo inlaid in pearl on the headstock. Some ultra-modern features include a titanium truss rod, Liquidmetal® bridge pins with red dots, and a composite carbon fiber bridgeplate that boosts volume without adding weight. And Martin has included a new neck shape that is slightly asymmetrical for maximum hand comfort up and down the fretboard. This D-18 Modern Deluxe is anything but standard.
