Full Description

Enhanced Vintage Tone with GE-Scalloped Bracing
The Martin 000-18 Refreshed is equipped with GE-Scalloped bracing, a design that enhances the guitar's resonance and delivers a vintage, open tone. This bracing allows the solid spruce top to vibrate freely, resulting in a rich sustain and a well-balanced sound. Paying homage to Martin's iconic Golden Era craftsmanship, the refined bracing structure offers a warm, dynamic tone that improves over time, making it ideal for those seeking an authentic, vintage-inspired acoustic character.

Superior Playability with High-Performance Neck Profile
For unparalleled comfort, the 000-18 Refreshed features the GE Modified Low Oval neck combined with a High-Performance Taper. This ergonomic neck design promotes smooth fretboard transitions, making it ideal for both strumming and intricate fingerstyle playing. The gently beveled ebony fingerboard adds extra comfort, providing a sleek, responsive feel that enhances your playing experience.

Premium Materials for Lasting Durability and Clarity
The 000-18 Refreshed is crafted with premium materials including a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and select hardwood for the neck. These carefully chosen materials ensure long-lasting durability and superior tonal clarity. The ebony bridge and fingerboard further enhance the guitar’s sustain and definition. Together, these materials work to preserve the guitar’s rich, full-bodied sound through years of regular use.

Timeless Aesthetics with Vintage-Inspired Details
The 000-18 Refreshed features a classic design that draws on Martin's rich history, with an aging toner finish on the top and a faux tortoise pickguard, creating an elegant vintage look. The Old Style 18 multi-stripe rosette and nickel open gear tuners add refined, nostalgic touches, complementing the guitar’s sophisticated appearance.
