If you're searching for the soul and sound of a pre-war dreadnought, the Martin D-18 Authentic 1937 VTS delivers an extraordinary vintage-inspired experience built to the most meticulous standards. Crafted as a true-to-era replica, this Authentic Series model captures the tone, feel, and look of a golden-era Martin with period-correct detailing, hide glue construction, and Martin’s Vintage Tone System (VTS) applied to its Adirondack spruce top and braces. The VTS treatment artfully ages the wood to reproduce the warm, broken-in tone of an original 1930s Martin. Genuine mahogany back and sides contribute a focused, dry voice that pairs beautifully with the powerful top-end projection of the Adirondack spruce. This model also features an Authentic 1937 neck shape with a standard taper for that chunky, vintage feel. Now available as a used model in excellent condition, this historically faithful D-18 includes its original hardshell case and is offered exclusively at Haggerty’s Music.
