Martin D-18 Authentic 1937 - natural vintage gloss aged
1937 was an excellent year for guitars, with a perfect storm of craftsmanship, innovation, and materials. This MARTIN GUITAR D-18 Authentic 1937 Aged acoustic guitar stays true to the original with hide glue construction and historically accurate detailing.
D-18 Authentic 1937 Aged features genuine mahogany back and sides and an Adirondack spruce top, and it includes an Authentic circa 1937 bracing pattern. Plus, it adds the Vintage Tone System® (VTS) that ages the wood to replicate the sound of a vintage Martin. Martin's craftspeople can recreate the pleasing visual aesthetics of a vintage guitar and reproduce the particular tones previously reserved for vintage instruments.
Martin has reintroduced a more accurate body profile based on dreadnought shapes from the early Golden Era of Martin's history. The result is a tactile, visual, and auditory experience that will transport you all the way back to the 1930s.
