🌟2025🌟 Martin 00-18 Standard Series Grand Concert Acoustic Guitar~ USA + Case!

✨ EXCEPTIONAL MARTIN 00-18 ACOUSTIC GUITAR ✨

A seriously special piece through the shop. This 2025 Martin 00-18 was bought new by one of our customers in January 2026 for £3,100 from Gear4Music, played once, and traded back in for a 12-string. That’s the reality of it. This is essentially a new guitar with a huge saving.

If you’ve been considering a 00-18, this is a chance to get one without the new price tag.

The 00-18 Refreshed takes everything people love about Martin’s golden era instruments and refines it with modern playability. At the heart of it is the GE-Scalloped bracing, inspired by Martin’s historic builds. It allows the solid Sitka spruce top to move more freely, giving you a warm, rich voice with outstanding sustain and dynamic response. It’s incredibly expressive, whether you’re playing fingerstyle, light strumming or digging in a bit harder.

The solid mahogany back and sides balance things beautifully, keeping the tone focused and articulate while still full and resonant. There’s a real depth to it, the kind of sound that only improves with time.

Playability is spot on. The Modified Low Oval neck with High Performance Taper feels smooth and natural in the hand, making everything from complex chords to lead work feel effortless. The 24.9” scale gives it that slightly slinkier feel, and the ebony fingerboard is fast, responsive and comfortable over longer sessions.

There are some really nice touches throughout. Ebony bridge pins improve vibration transfer and help bring out extra clarity and sustain. The ebony bridge, bone nut and compensated saddle all contribute to a precise, stable and resonant setup. It all adds up to a guitar that feels incredibly alive.

Visually it’s exactly what you want from a 00-18. The ageing toner finish gives the spruce top that subtle vintage look straight out of the case, paired with the darker mahogany for a timeless aesthetic. Black binding, Old Style 18 rosette, faux tortoise guard and butter bean open gear tuners finish it off perfectly. It looks every bit as good as it sounds.

Condition is as close to new as you’ll find without buying brand new. It’s had minimal use and has been very well looked after.

Due to the value of this instrument, we will arrange personal hand delivery within mainland UK only.
