The Martin D-18 Modern Deluxe reimagines the legendary D-18 with advanced vintage tone and modern tech. A Sitka spruce top treated with Martin’s Vintage Tone System (VTS), dovetail neck joint, and natural protein glue deliver rich, aged character. Enhanced with East Indian rosewood binding, gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and a 1930s-style pearloid headstock logo, this guitar is visually striking. Modern upgrades like Liquidmetal® bridge pins, carbon-fiber bridge plate, and an asymmetrical Vintage Deluxe neck provide premium playability and projection.
