Martin Acoustic Guitars - D-18 Authentic

This Martin D-18 Authentic is considered by many players, collectors and aficionados to be the best new guitar since the real golden era of the 1930s. I can tell you from personal experience that the Martin Co. put out a lot of effort to make this model true to the name "Authentic". They studied and measured fine old 1936 and 37 D-18s, sent out prototypes to dealers and players and eventually came up with a new guitar that feels, looks and sounds like what I can imagine a new D-18 sounded like when grandpa brought one home in 1937. This particular guitar was purchased new from Mass Street by a customer who has owned several 30s and earlier guitars. It has been played, but remains in Near Mint condition, with only very minor signs of play wear. This guitar was picked out of a group of three that we had at the time, and returned to us for sale sounding even more impressive due to a few years of playing. - Jim B.

"This guitar has completely opened up and sounds beautiful. What a joy to play." - Matthew K.
