{"product_id":"martin-custom-shop-d-18","title":"Martin Custom Shop D-18","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Custom Shop D-18 is a 14-fret dreadnought in genuine mahogany with an Adirondack spruce top in Aging Toner. The braces are Adirondack as well, hand-shaped and GE-scalloped in the Forward-Shifted X-Brace pattern, and the trim leans old: faux tortoise binding and guard, an Old Style 18 multi-stripe rosette, Old Style 18 abalone inlays on ebony and an East Indian rosewood headplate with an Authentic Style script logo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is a GE Modified Low Oval with the High-Performance Taper and a 1 3\/4\" nut on a 25.4\" scale, with a bone nut and saddle and nickel open-gear tuners. Martin's description is of a strong, resonant dreadnought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext to the Standard Series D-18, the changes are the Adirondack top and bracing and the genuine mahogany. For the hide-glue build with VTS-aged woods and a 1937 neck, look at the D-18 Authentic 1937. We'd point a player here who wants an Adirondack top and the High-Performance Taper neck together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA (Nazareth, Pennsylvania)\u003cbr\u003eBody Size: D-14 Fret\u003cbr\u003eConstruction: Dovetail Neck Joint\u003cbr\u003eBack Material: Genuine Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eSide Material: Genuine Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eBack and Sides Finish: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eBack and Sides Color: Dark Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eBack Purfling\/Strip: Style 18\u003cbr\u003eBracing Pattern: Forward-Shifted X-Brace\u003cbr\u003eBrace Shape: GE-Scalloped Hand Shaped\u003cbr\u003eBrace Material: Adirondack Spruce\u003cbr\u003eBrace Size: 5\/16\"\u003cbr\u003eEndpiece: Faux Tortoise\u003cbr\u003eTop Material: Adirondack Spruce\u003cbr\u003eFinish Top: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eTop Color: Aging Toner\u003cbr\u003eTop Inlay Material: Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Faux Tortoise\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Faux Tortoise\u003cbr\u003eRosette: Old Style 18 Multi-Stripe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck Shape: GE Modified Low Oval\u003cbr\u003eNeck Taper: High-Performance Taper\u003cbr\u003eNeck Material: Select Hardwood\u003cbr\u003eNeck Color: Dark Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eFinish Neck: Satin\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25.4\"\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Frets Total: 20\u003cbr\u003eNeck Joins Body At: 14th Fret\u003cbr\u003eHeelcap: Faux Tortoise\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Width at 12th Fret: 2 1\/8''\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Width at Nut: 1 3\/4''\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Inlay Style: Old Style 18\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Inlay Material: Abalone\u003cbr\u003eSide Dots: White\u003cbr\u003eHeadstock Shape: Solid with Square Taper\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Material: East Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Logo Style: Authentic Style Script Overlay\u003cbr\u003ePleked: Yes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eBridge Style: GE Modern Belly - Drop in Saddle\u003cbr\u003eBridge String Spacing: 2 5\/32\"\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pin Material: Black Plastic\u003cbr\u003eSaddle: Bone\u003cbr\u003eSaddle Radius: 16\"\u003cbr\u003eTuning Machines: Nickel Open Gear\u003cbr\u003eKnob: Butterbean\u003cbr\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCASE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCase: Hardshell\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Martin","offers":[{"title":"Natural","offer_id":47771565588564,"sku":"10CMD182025","price":5929.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/1220\/7188\/files\/CM-D-18_f_sq.jpg?v=1791397523","url":"https:\/\/lauzonmusic.com\/products\/martin-custom-shop-d-18","provider":"Lauzon Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
