The classic Martin sound! Martin D18's are have been a workhorse guitar of choice for busy guitarists for over 50 years. Owners have included Elvis Presley who played a WW2-time Martin D-18 guitar as his main instrument during much of the 1950s, legendary Flat-picker Clarence White who played a slightly modified D-18 with the Kentucky Colonels.

The Style 18 Martin guitar (D-18, OM-18, 000-18, 00-18, 0-18) is a spruce top, mahogany body Martin guitar that has been the mainstream of the Martin guitar line since the mid-1800s.
