Martin 00-18 Golden Era - sitka/mahogany

The Martin 00-18 is a trusted classic, beloved for its balanced and timeless tone. Its smaller, comfortable Grand Concert body size delivers a focused voice, with clear trebles and warm bass, making it perfect for intricate fingerstyle playing and dynamic, nuanced strumming. Handcrafted with a solid spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, the 00-18 offers a bright treble response, punchy midrange, and the dependable projection players have relied on for generations. Its satin neck with a Golden Era (GE) Modified Low Oval profile, high-performance taper, and 24.9" scale length provides unmatched comfort, while ebony details, including the bridge, bridge pins, and fingerboard with abalone dot inlays, enhance its iconic design. Complete with aging toner on its top, black binding, and nickel open gear tuners, the 00-18 is a guitar you can trust to unleash the artist within. 

Martin’s refreshed Standard Series for 2025 enhances tone, comfort, and style. Sitka spruce GE top bracing, as featured on the Modern Deluxe Series, delivers vintage-inspired tone and sustain, while updates like a reimagined neck profile, thinner fingerboard, and refined bridge and heel improve playability and aesthetics. Each guitar includes a hardshell case. 

THE STANDARD SERIES | Play the guitars that shaped modern music. They’re the backbone of Martin—distinguished instruments that created the template for the American acoustic flattop guitar. Standard Series models embody nearly two centuries of craftsmanship and technique—history made from wood and wire. These legendary guitars and the artists who played them helped establish country, folk, bluegrass, and rock. Today, you’ll hear their ringing tone echoing across the American soundscape and in music around the world.

History you can play

The Standard Series embodies nearly two centuries of craftsmanship and innovation, shaping the sound of modern music. Handmade in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, from solid wood using time-honored techniques like dovetail neck joints and X-bracing, these legendary guitars have a storied legacy. Now, Martin has refreshed the lineup with subtle yet impactful refinements and new models—all while preserving its vintage soul. With updated details that enhance tone and playability, the Standard Series remains the trusted choice for players seeking an American classic that continues to inspire.
