The Martin 00018 Standard Series draws from over a century of production and use since its introduction in 1906, and th this instrument has proven to be consistently popular in both 12 and 14 fret versions.
As an ’18’ model guitar, the Martin 00018 Standard starts with a Sitka Spruce top, with Mahogany for the sides, back, body blocks and neck. The head plate is Indian Rosewood, and the fingerboard and bridge are Ebony. And as a current model, it has passed through a PLEK system.
Here we’re looking at a Martin 00018 Standard Series steel string guitar in nearly-new condition, built during 2019 at the Martin plant in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. It is very clean, with no appreciable wear of any kind.
Almost ideal for fingerstyle playing, the Martin 00018 Standard delivers a very even harmonic representation, with lots of top end sparkle
The original Martin hard shell case is included, and is in equally good clean condition.
More From The Builder On the Martin 00018 Standard Series Guitar:
“Carrying a distinct vintage-inspired design and updated like the D-18 a few years ago, the redesigned 000-18 offers many of the features found in our pre-war era guitars.
The 000-18, which has a beautiful aging toned top in Sitka spruce, is married with genuine mahogany back and sides. The body is edged with tortoise binding and complemented with a polished finish. The 24.9” short scale model’s neck features a modified low oval profile with Performing Artist taper, with a width of 1-3/4” at the nut and 2-5/32” string spacing for easy playability.
Nickel open-geared tuners with butterbean knobs are found with a rosewood headplate, which displays a large old style Martin logo.”
