With elegant appointments and powerful sound, it’s a bold evolution of a Martin classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D-18 Modern Deluxe reimagines a Martin icon with cutting-edge craftsmanship. A spruce VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM® (VTS) top and Golden Era–style Adirondack spruce X-bracing recreate the power and balance of a nearly century-old Martin. Natural protein glue and a lightweight carbon-fiber bridge plate add resonance and sustain, while exclusive Liquidmetal® bridge pins enhance projection by up to 3 decibels. EVO gold frets and a slightly asymmetrical neck ensure smooth, precise play, and East Indian rosewood binding around the body, Waverly gold open-gear tuners, and a 1933-style pearl logo lend understated elegance. The iconic Dreadnought body shape offers bold lows, articulate highs, and exceptional headroom—a faithful tribute to the past with a distinctly modern edge and refined sonic authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHighlights\u003cbr\u003eD-14 Fret body size\u003cbr\u003eGenuine Mahogany back and sides\u003cbr\u003eEuropean Red Spruce w\/ VTS top\u003cbr\u003eVintage Deluxe neck with High-Performance Taper\u003cbr\u003e1 3\/4'' fingerboard width at nut\u003cbr\u003ePly Hardshell case\u003cbr\u003eStrings: Authentic Acoustic Lifespan® 2.0 Guitar Strings Phosphor Bronze - Medium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTop\u003cbr\u003eTop Material: European Red Spruce w\/ VTS\u003cbr\u003eFinish Top: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eTop Color: Clear\u003cbr\u003eTop Inlay Material: Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eTop Detail: None\u003cbr\u003eBinding: East Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eBridge Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eBridge Style: Modern Belly - Drop in Saddle\u003cbr\u003eBridge String Spacing: 2 5\/32\"\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pin Material: Liquidmetal®\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pin Dots: Red Acrylic\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Tortoise Pattern\u003cbr\u003ePickguard Inlay: None\u003cbr\u003eRosette: Old Style 18 Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eSaddle: Compensated White TUSQ®\u003cbr\u003eSaddle Radius: 16\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBody\u003cbr\u003eBody Size: D-14 Fret\u003cbr\u003eConstruction: Dovetail Neck Joint\u003cbr\u003eBack Material: Genuine Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eSide Material: Genuine Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eBack and Sides Finish: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eBack and Sides Color: Dark Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eBack Detail: None\u003cbr\u003eSide Detail: None\u003cbr\u003eBack Purfling\/Strip: Style 18\u003cbr\u003eBack Inlay Material: None\u003cbr\u003eSide Inlay Material: None\u003cbr\u003eBracing Pattern: Forward-Shifted X-Brace\u003cbr\u003eBrace Shape: GE-Scalloped\u003cbr\u003eBrace Material: Adirondack Spruce with VTS\u003cbr\u003eBrace Size: 5\/16\"\u003cbr\u003eEndpiece: None\u003cbr\u003eEndpiece Inlay: None\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeck\u003cbr\u003eNeck Shape: Vintage Deluxe\u003cbr\u003eNeck Taper: High-Performance Taper\u003cbr\u003eNeck Material: Select Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eNeck Color: Dark Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eFinish Neck: Satin\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25.4\"\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Frets Total: 20\u003cbr\u003eNeck Joins Body At: 14th Fret\u003cbr\u003eHeelcap: East Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Width at 12th Fret: 2 1\/8''\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Width at Nut: 1 3\/4''\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Inlay Style: Old Style 18\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Inlay Material: Abalone\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Binding Material: None\u003cbr\u003eSide Dots: Abalone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeadstock\u003cbr\u003eHeadstock Shape: Solid with Square Taper\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Material: East Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Logo Style: 1933 CFM Script Inlay\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Binding Material: None\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Detail: None\u003cbr\u003eTuning Machines: Waverly® Gold Open Gear\u003cbr\u003eKnob: Butterbean\u003cbr\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMisc\u003cbr\u003eCase: Ply Hardshell\u003cbr\u003eLabel: None\u003cbr\u003eElectronics: Yes\u003cbr\u003eElectronics Options: Fishman Aura VT Blend\u003cbr\u003eLeft Handed Availability: true\u003cbr\u003ePleked: true\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47110313836591,"sku":"M3073794","price":4499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/2875\/9855\/files\/DSC_0185_f028f37e-b421-4484-a708-ac8e26c988c2.jpg?v=1793651219","url":"https:\/\/fullersguitar.com\/products\/martin-d-18e-modern-deluxe-acoustic-electric-fishman-aura-vt-blend","provider":"Fuller's Guitar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
