The Story

DSS-2018 Dreadnought Natural

This is a DSS-2018 dreadnought from the company that invented the dreadnought: Martin! The DSS-2018 has an Adirondack spruce top with mahogany back and sides. The guitar was built to be super lightweight, with carbon fiber used for the tuners, pickguard, and headstock overlay. The guitar has Liquidmetal bridge pins that are proven to increase sustain, harmonic, and volume output - while looking like classic bone pins. The guitar is a beautiful and well-executed mix of classic Martin with modern design! This is a used example and it's in excellent overall condition no notable damage.

Includes: Hardshell Case
