1937 was an excellent year for guitars with a perfect storm of craftsmanship, innovation, and materials. This Authentic Series replication of a 1937 D-18 stays true to the original.

Why We Love This

We sold this revamped Martin D-18 Authentic 1937 VTS back in October of 2022 and the original owner has just listed it with us on consignment, opting for a smaller guitar.

This new iteration of the D-18 Authentic 1937 incorporates Martin's "Vintage Tone System" and slightly redesigned body contours into what's essentially their classic D-18A package.

The sound is instantly familiar: powerful, woody, warm, and bright all at once, with huge low end and the penetrating trebles prized by bluegrass flatpickers.

About Used Guitars

Please Note
Used instruments are - well - used. We pride ourselves on thoroughly vetting - and carefully photographing - each pre-owned instrument we sell but many of them carry subtle signs of handling that can escape even the most discerning eye. If you have questions about the condition of this instrument we invite you to call us for an in-hand description. We're here to help!
