NEW Martin Super D‑18 Just Arrived This guitar is brand new and in perfect playing condition. While being removed from the glass showcase, the very tip of the headstock lightly contacted the inner track, leaving small cosmetic dings (shown in photos).

To account for this minor blemish, we’re discounting it 10%. We’re also having a violin luthier evaluate a touch‑up, as he believes he can match the finish cleanly.

The guitar still includes the full factory warranty and has no other issues with the finish or structure.

The Martin Super D-18 takes the legendary Style 18 Dreadnought to the next level. With 20% more internal air volume than a standard Dreadnought, this Super D body delivers thunderous bass, increased volume, and extended dynamic range—all while keeping the iconic silhouette intact. Solid genuine mahogany back and sides add warmth and punch, while the spruce top ensures clarity and projection. Forward-shifted Golden Era scalloped X-bracing, as featured on the Modern Deluxe Series, makes every note responsive and powerful. Appointments like black binding, abalone dot inlays, and a satin-finished neck keep the look classic and the playability smooth. Paired with an ebony bridge and fingerboard, the Super D-18 is a bold evolution of an acoustic icon—built for players who want to be heard.

Super Dreadnought Body and GE Scalloped X-Bracing

Martin’s Super D body shape takes the familiar dreadnought silhouette and scales it up to deliver dramatically increased output and low-end authority. With significantly greater internal air volume, this design produces deeper bass, enhanced headroom and a broader dynamic range, making it ideal for players who drive a guitar hard. Forward-shifted Golden Era scalloped X-bracing allows the spruce top to move more freely, improving sustain, resonance and sensitivity while maintaining structural integrity. The result is a guitar that responds effortlessly to light touch or aggressive attack, projecting with clarity and force in any musical setting.

Spruce Top and Mahogany Back and Sides for Powerful Tone

A solid spruce top forms the sonic foundation of the Super D-18, delivering articulation, clarity and projection across the frequency range. Spruce’s stiffness-to-weight ratio supports crisp note definition and dynamic responsiveness even at higher volumes. Genuine mahogany back and sides add warmth, focused low end and punchy midrange presence that keeps the expanded bass response controlled and musical. This time-tested tonewood pairing excels for flatpicking, strumming and vocal accompaniment, offering a powerful yet balanced voice in solo or ensemble settings.

GE Modified Low Oval Neck for Effortless Playability

The Super D-18 features a GE Modified Low Oval neck profile with Martin’s high-performance taper, creating a comfortable modern feel that supports smooth movement across all 20 frets. A traditional dovetail neck joint enhances resonance and long-term stability, while an ebony fingerboard provides a fast, smooth playing surface with crisp attack and durability. Abalone Old Style 18 dot inlays offer clear visual reference without distracting from the guitar’s classic aesthetic. With a 25.4″ scale length and 1-3/4″ nut width, the Super D-18 balances power, precision and comfort.

Classic Martin Hardware and Elegant Style 18 Appointments

Timeless Style 18 details connect the Super D-18 to Martin’s storied heritage. Black body binding, a faux tortoiseshell pickguard and an Old Style 18 multi-stripe rosette complement the gloss top and dark mahogany finish. The GE modern belly ebony bridge with bone saddle and ebony bridge pins supports strong fundamentals and excellent sustain. Nickel open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs provide smooth tuning and a vintage-inspired look, while a bone nut ensures consistent string response. The guitar ships in a molded hardshell case for protection on the road or in storage.

Super D-18: A New Standard for Acoustic Power

The Martin Super D-18 stands as a new benchmark in acoustic projection and authority. Its oversized Super D body, forward-shifted GE scalloped bracing and classic spruce and mahogany construction combine to produce a commanding voice that remains balanced and articulate. Handcrafted in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, the Super D-18 honors Martin tradition while pushing acoustic design forward, making it an ideal choice for players who need their guitar to lead, drive and fill any room with unmistakable Martin tone.
