Description
The Martin D-18 1935 Gloss Sunburst Dreadnought takes everything players love about a classic D-18 and leans hard into that prewar personality. With its spruce top finished in a rich 1935 sunburst and mahogany back and sides under full gloss, this guitar looks every bit the part of an old soul, while still offering the consistency and precision you expect from a modern Martin build.
The forward-shifted, GE-scalloped bracing gives this dreadnought a lively, open response with plenty of headroom. The spruce and mahogany pairing keeps the sound punchy and direct. A GE-modified low oval neck with a high-performance taper and 1 3/4 inch nut width gives it a comfortable, confident grip. Housed in a ply hardshell case.
