We set out to spec something that could hold its own alongside a banjo, mandolin, fiddle, and even dobro; but as it turns out, this isn’t just a great bluegrass flat-picking guitar. It sounds great for just about anything else as well. It features an Adirondack red spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides, delivering a sound that’s loud, punchy, balanced, and articulate. The neck is Martin’s GE Modified Low Oval with a Performance Taper (Now a Standard Series spec as of 2025) paired with a 1 3\/4\" nut width for a feel that’s modern and highly playable. A couple of visual features set this one apart. The top is bordered with a vibrant, multi-colored half-herringbone purfling, something you don’t often see from Martin these days. It’s also fitted with a Dalmatian-style pickguard, a nod to the iconic Martin dreadnought owned by Clarence White and Tony Rice. If you’re after a dynamic, versatile 18-style dreadnought, this one definitely checks a lot of boxes. It comes in an 18-style hardshell case.","brand":"CF Martin \u0026 Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45949026468039,"sku":"MARC25030215-3017402","price":4650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/4947\/3991\/files\/1720011_e1cb8b9a-1855-4be9-b953-ee8153661caf.jpg?v=1781866312","url":"https:\/\/www.gryphonstrings.com\/products\/martin-custom-shop-dreadnought-18-style-adirondack-steel-string-acoustic-guitar-new-23682","provider":"Gryphon Strings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
