The Martin D-18 Standard is one of the undisputed classics of dreadnought guitars. The dreadnought shape was first presented in 1931 and was immediately a huge success. Thanks to its full-bodied and powerful sound with prominent highs, the D-18 quickly found fans in folk and bluegrass scenes. In the years that followed, the D-18 found its way into countless genres. The list of D-18 players reads like a who’s who of the greats in the music business: Kurt Cobain, Slash, Brian May, Elvis Presley, Neil Young… The list seems to go on forever… We are happy that Martin still manufactures this iconic guitar in Nazareth, Pennsylvania and that we have the opportunity to offer you the D-18.
