Richly resonant with a classic, satin-finished design.
The Martin D-18 satin acoustic guitar features the characteristic projective tone and strong bass of Martin dreadnoughts, with the addition of a satin-finished top, back and sides. The D-18 has mahogany back and sides for plenty of volume, plus bright trebles and punchy midrange tones. The scalloped bracing contributes as well to the fuller sound. Additional appointments to the D-18 include a mahogany neck in a modified low oval profile, an ebony fingerboard and bridge, bone nut and nickel open-gear tuners.
This D-18 satin acoustic comes with a ply hardshell case.
