Description
Taking cues from the old 000-18s of yesteryear, the vintage-inspired, updated design of the Martin 000-18 has many similar features from the company's pre-war era instruments. The 000-18, which has a beautiful aging toned top in Sitka spruce, is married with genuine 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 1-¾" 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.
