Martin D-18 Satin 2025

The Martin D-18 is a true classic! Its dreadnought body shape makes it an assertive instrument with lots of volume. The proven wood combination of Sitka spruce for the top and mahogany for the back and sides ensures a warm, balanced sound. The neck is very comfortable to play thanks to the Modified Low Oval neck profile. For a subtle vintage look, the top was painted with a light golden yellow aging toner. Open gear tuners and the Script Old Style logo on the headstock further support the look. The instrument is stylishly delivered in a high-quality case!

In addition, there are all the changes to the standard series for 2025. The new GE Scalloped X-Bracing promises even better resonance of the top while at the same time increasing stability. Some features of the "Golden Era" have also been adopted and give the instrument more vintage charm. The fretboard edges have been rounded more and the fretboard has been made thinner. On the back of the headstock there is a beautiful volute, the "diamond", which has been made a little longer. The shape of the bridge has also changed and the edges have been rounded. Another fine detail is the bridge pins made of bone.

Here is an overview of the most important "refinements" of the standard series for 2025
