Product Description
The Custom Shop 000-18 makes it easier than ever to get your hands on a handcrafted Martin built with premium tonewoods. With a solid Adirondack spruce top and genuine mahogany back and sides, this short-scale Auditorium model offers warm, articulate tone with exceptional clarity. It features hand-shaped Golden Era scalloped bracing and a dovetail neck joint for vintage-inspired resonance and response. The 000 body is equally at home with fingerpicking, strumming, or recording, and the faux tortoise binding adds a refined, custom touch. Designed to bring Custom Shop quality to more players, this special model is ready when you are—no need to start from scratch. For those seeking an heirloom-level guitar within reach, the Custom Shop 000-18 delivers.
Features
- Adirondack Spruce Top - The Adirondack spruce soundboard delivers exceptional headroom, clarity and projection, so your tone stays open and articulate whether you are playing softly or driving the guitar hard with a pick.
- Genuine Mahogany Back and Sides - Solid genuine mahogany provides a warm, dry and focused midrange that helps your playing sit perfectly in a mix, ideal for recording, ensemble work and solo performance alike.
- GE Modified Low Oval Neck with High-Performance Taper - This modern neck profile offers a comfortable, fast feel with a 1 3/4 inch nut width, giving you extra space for complex chords and fingerstyle patterns without feeling bulky.
- Golden Era Scalloped Forward-Shifted Bracing - Hand-shaped GE scalloped bracing, moved slightly forward on the top, enhances resonance, volume and responsiveness, giving the guitar a lively, vintage-inspired character.
