Martin D-18E Modern Deluxe AE
The Martin D-18E Modern Deluxe is packed with vintage appointments, custom features and modern technology. A Sitka spruce Vintage Tone System (VTS) top, dovetail neck joint, and natural protein glue construction deliver the rich, fully-aged Martin tone that has inspired generations. European flamed maple binding, stylish gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and a unique 1930s style script logo inlaid in pearl on the headstock give it a look to match its sound.

Ultra-modern features like a titanium truss rod, Liquidmetal bridge pins with red dots, and a composite carbon fiber bridgeplate boost volume without adding weight, making this a guitar players dream. Adjustable Aura Imaging technology included in new Fishman Aura VT Blend electronics now allows more control over the voice of your guitar than ever before. The OM-28E Modern Deluxe comes with a ply hardshell case and strung with Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 light gauge strings.
