A Timeless Mahogany Classic

The 000-18 stands as one of Martin’s most enduring and respected models—celebrated for its balance, clarity, and understated elegance. Rooted in Martin’s early 20th-century mahogany tradition, this Auditorium-sized instrument offers the perfect middle ground: compact and comfortable, yet powerful and articulate. The 000 body shape delivers excellent projection without sacrificing nuance, making it an incredibly expressive and inspiring guitar to play.

Focused, Articulate, and Beautifully Balanced

This example sounds every bit as beautiful as it looks—extremely resonant, lively, and articulate. The combination of:

Solid Spruce Top (Gloss with Aging Toner)

Solid Mahogany Back & Sides

produces crisp, clear trebles, a woody and punchy midrange, and a tight, controlled low end that never feels overpowering. The result is a balanced, focused voice that sits beautifully in a mix or fills a room with warmth and clarity.

The short 24.9” scale length enhances playability and warmth, encouraging dynamic expression and long, comfortable playing sessions.

Golden Era-Inspired Refinements

Never content to stand still, Martin has elevated the 000-18 with thoughtful, player-focused upgrades:

GE-Scalloped Sitka Spruce X-Bracing (1/4”) for enhanced responsiveness and vintage-style bloom

GE Modified Low Oval neck profile with High-Performance Taper for a fast, comfortable feel

•Thinner fingerboard and refined heel and bridge shaping

•Dovetail neck joint for traditional tone transfer

These updates increase sustain, openness, and overall responsiveness while maintaining the classic 18-style character players love.
