Martin D-18V Vintager Series Acoustic Guitar
A member of Martin's Vintage Series acoustic guitars, the D-18V Dreadnought features many of the characteristics of Martin's pre-World War II instruments - old-style squared headstock, modified V-shaped neck, period fingerboard inlays, scalloped bracing, beveled tortoise colored pickguard, vintage tuning machines and Gieb style case and more. The top of the D-18V is made of solid Spruce, while the back and sides are of Mahogany. The D-18V features an ebony fingerboard and bridge. Other vintage touches to this beautiful instrument include old-style abalone positon dots and open-geared chrome tuners with butterbean knobs.
