The Super D-18, swinging in as part of Martin's acclaimed Standard Series, makes a name for itself in big, big ways. An expanded tonal profile, a new feel for playability, and Martin's largest body style to date all assemble for a revitalized take on Martin's dreadnought legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Martin Style 18 Dreadnought is a classic in every sense. With this Standard Series Super D-18, that legacy gets a new chapter written. The Martin Standard Series Super D-18 begins with a spruce top and solid genuine mahogany back and sides. This iconic Martin tonewood combination produces the rich, familiar Martin sound made famous across generations with a particular variation: The Super D-14 Fret body style. Truly, the Standard Super D-18 leaves a large impression with the Super D-14 Fret body style which increases internal air volume by 20% over the usual dreadnought size. The Super D-14 Fret body is large and in-charge for thunderous bass, enhanced volume, and an extended dynamic range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilding out this body at square one, Martin took the liberty to outfit it with Golden Era scalloped spruce braces in a forward-shifted X-Brace pattern. Usually found in their Modern Deluxe series, this brace pattern punches up the projection even more for a truly formidable sonic force. This combination of mahogany and spruce are then treated to a gloss finish with Dark Mahogany and Aging Toner colors, respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Super D-18 matches its massive body with a smooth neck. Attached through Martin's dovetail neck joint construction and reaching out in a Golden Era Modified Low Oval profile with a High Performance taper, this satin-finished neck is seamless for long play sessions. Another Martin classic, an ebony fingerboard, lands with this neck with twenty frets punctuated with abalone Old Style 18 Dot inlays. A smooth fretting feel on the fingers and an understated aesthetic make this neck effortless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike other Martin Standard Series entries, the Super D-18 is fitted with a set of reliable hardware and cool aesthetic appointments. A bone nut and saddle land at either end of this guitar's scale for a solid connection and fluidity among the strings. Alongside these pieces, the ebony bridge's Golden Era Modern Belly design and nickel open gear tuning machines solidify intonation even further. A simple black binding job and a faux tortoise pickguard land this whole experience just right. This Martin Standard Series Super D-18 travels with an included Martin molded hardshell case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith so many generations of Martin dreadnoughts to look back on, the Super D-18 does so with reverence while forging ahead into exciting, new frontiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Highlight --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMartin Standard Series Super D-14 Fret model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloss-finished spruce top with Martin Aging Toner color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloss-finished solid genuine mahogany back and sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDovetail neck joint satin-finished select hardwood neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGolden Era \"GE\" Modified Low Oval neck profile with High Performance taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEbony fingerboard with twenty frets and abalone Old Style 18 Dot inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNickel open gear tuning machines and bone nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGolden Era ebony Modern Belly bridge with drop-in bone saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOld Style 18 multi-stripe rosette and black binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMartin molded hardshell case included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Martin Guitars","offers":[{"title":"M3032016","offer_id":55239556628648,"sku":"10Y25SUPERD18|||M3032016","price":3149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"M3061798","offer_id":55505587077288,"sku":"10Y25SUPERD18|||M3061798","price":3149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"M3032110","offer_id":55505589469352,"sku":"10Y25SUPERD18|||M3032110","price":3149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1210\/3886\/files\/10Y25SUPERD18_STANDARD-SERIES-SUPER-D-18_M3032016_3.jpg?v=1770327667","url":"https:\/\/www.russomusic.com\/products\/martin-super-d-18-standard-series-acoustic-guitar-natural-w-hard-case","provider":"Russo Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
