Overview
Along with its Rosewood counterpart, the D-28, the Martin D-18 stands as one of the true original dreadnoughts introduced by Martin in 1932. The D-18 made a switch from a 12-fret to a 14-fret instrument in 1934 and has stayed largely the same since, with just the occasional change in wood source or cosmetic detail. Since the D-18 uses Mahogany instead of Rosewood, it is thought to have a somewhat crisper sound with more definition the top-end.
Years of Production: 1932 - present
Specific to this Era: Martin switches from scalloped to heavier non-scalloped bracing in 1945.
Body Style: Dreadnought
Wood Composition: Mahogany back and sides, Adirondack Spruce top, one-piece mahogany neck
