It is known for its warm, balanced tone and robust projection, blending classic aesthetics with contemporary construction features. The D-18 has been a cornerstone of the Martin lineup for decades. The original 12-fret D-18 was introduced in 1931, with the iconic 14-fret design following in 1934. Throughout the post-WWII era until 2012, the D-18 maintained a consistent design with minor variations, primarily featuring non-scalloped bracing and a 1 11\/16\" nut width. In 2013, Martin significantly updated the D-18, moving it closer to \"Golden Era\" vintage specs. This revision included features such as forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing (for enhanced resonance), an aging toner top finish, open-gear tuners, and an ebony fingerboard and bridge. This 2018 model is part of this acclaimed, modern iteration.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL EU PURCHASES ARE DELIVERED WITH TAXES AND DUTIES PAID\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAll purchases include EU Taxes \/ Duties paid, i.e., nothing further is due on receipt of goods to any EU State.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHY BUY FROM US\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe are one of the world's leading specialists in used and vintage gear with over 30 years of experience.
