Description
The 000-18 Modern Deluxe unites Martin's vintage soul with modern sophistication. A spruce VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM (VTS) top and Golden Era-style Adirondack spruce X-bracing recreate the tone of a nearly century-old Martin. Natural protein glue construction and a lightweight carbon-fiber bridge plate enhance resonance and sustain, while exclusive Liquidmetal bridge pins reflect energy for increased volume. EVO gold frets and a slightly asymmetrical neck deliver effortless comfort and control. Elegant East Indian rosewood binding, Waverly gold open-gear tuners, and a 1933-style pearl script logo complete the aesthetic. With its 000 body, it produces balanced mids and clear trebles, ideal for fingerstyle players seeking articulation and warmth. Vintage Martin tone meets modern luxury in a guitar built to inspire creativity. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action so it's ready to play straight out of the case.
