This model, fitted for a luxurious musical experience, lines up with top-shelf Martin sounds and styles. As part of the celebrated Martin Standard Series, this D-18 effortlessly shows off the brand's technical know-how, musical intuition, and reputation for showmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Martin Standard Series D-18 is a knockout example of Martin mojo in motion. This begins with Martin's classic D-14 Fret dreadnought body brought together by a combination of spruce and mahogany. A time-tested tonewood combination, this body assembles to produce a rich, resonant, and radiant voice perfect for performance. The spruce top is lined with Martin Golden Era scalloped spruce braces in a forward-shifted X-Brace pattern that enhances balance and projection – a feature normally found in Martin's Modern Deluxe series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Standard Series entry continues on with a satin-finished neck assuming a Golden Era Modified Low Oval profile with a High-Performance taper. Connected through a dovetail neck joint, this neck is seamlessly played and offers a solid transfer of motion. An ebony fingerboard is brought on with twenty frets and abalone Old Style 18 inlays balancing comfortable fretting and a charming, understated aesthetic choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor players always after the smaller details in their Martins, this Standard Series has plenty. First, the base of the scale features an ebony Golden Era Modern Belly bridge with a drop-in compensated bone saddle. At the scale's opposite end, a bone nut and nickel open gear tuning machines align at the East Indian rosewood-plated headstock with a Martin Script Old Style Overlay logo. Across the rest of the model, Multi-Stripe top inlay can be found alongside an Old Style 18 Multi-Stripe rosette and Martin's Aging Toner top color. Together, these features create an authentic Martin aesthetic with some carefully worn-in gloss finish age. This Standard Series D-18 travels with an included Martin hardshell case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone seeking out a quality and authentic Martin musical experience, this D-18 Standard Series delivers in droves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Highlight --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMartin Standard Series D-14 Fret dreadnought model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloss-finished spruce top with Martin Aging Toner color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloss-finished mahogany back and sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatin-finished neck in Golden Era Modified Low Oval profile with High Performance taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGolden Era scalloped spruce braces in forward-shifted X-Bracing pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDovetail neck joint construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEbony fingerboard with twenty frets and abalone inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEbony Golden Era Modern Belly bridge with drop-in compensated bone saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBone nut with nickel open gear tuning machines with butterbean knobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEast Indian rosewood headstock headplate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-Stripe top inlay and Old Style 18 Multi-Stripe rosette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMartin hardshell case included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Martin Guitars","offers":[{"title":"M3015892","offer_id":55527247839400,"sku":"10Y25D18|||M3015892","price":2999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"M3049209","offer_id":55615344345256,"sku":"10Y25D18|||M3049209","price":2999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1210\/3886\/files\/10Y25D18_D-18-STANDARD-SERIES-SPRUCE-MAHOGANY_M3015892_2.jpg?v=1776534419","url":"https:\/\/www.russomusic.com\/products\/martin-d-18-standard-series-acoustic-guitar-natural-w-hard-case","provider":"Russo Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
