Overview
Carrying a distinct vintage-inspired design and updated like the Martin D-18 a few years ago, the redesigned 000-18 offers many of the features found in our pre-war era guitars. The 000-18, which has a beautiful aging toned top in Sitka spruce, is married with mahogany back and sides. The body is edged with tortoise binding and complemented with a polished finish. The 24.9" short scale model's neck features a modified low oval profile with Performing Artist taper, with a width of 1-3/4" at the nut and 2-3/16" string spacing for easy playability. Nickel open-geared tuners with butterbean knobs are found with a rosewood headplate, which displays a large old style Martin logo.

I’ve been playing guitar for nearly 50 years and own guitars from Froggy Bottom, Goodall, Collings, Lowden, etc. I bought a Martin 000-18 to serve as my leave-out guitar, but it soon became my favorite. Light and resonant with good projection, plus the 24.9” scale and neck profile make playing super easy. The frets are well dressed and the woods are good quality. The only minor complaint I have is that the first string tuner is notchy, but it doesn’t affect my ability to tune it at all. All in all it’s a nicely made guitar that sounds great and plays easily. And I don’t leave it sit out. It sleeps in its case every night.
