Martin Custom Shop 18 Style 0014F Mahogany Burst/Jeff Tweedy Burst w/case 2985557

Serial: 2985557

This Martin Custom Shop 18 Style 00-14F brings together an all-mahogany build, a comfortable 00 Grand Concert body, and a standout Jeff Tweedy Burst finish. It has the dry, woody character players love from mahogany, with a custom visual treatment that gives the guitar a much darker, moodier look than a traditional natural-finish 18-style build.

The 00 body keeps the feel compact and comfortable, making this a great choice for fingerstyle, vocal accompaniment, recording, and relaxed couch playing without losing the focus and clarity you want from a serious Martin Custom Shop instrument. The mahogany top, back, and sides give it a direct fundamental voice with warm mids and a natural compression that sits beautifully in a mix.

The top is supported by scalloped spruce X-bracing in a Golden Era style, giving the guitar a more open and responsive feel while still keeping the note attack controlled. The 24.9" scale length adds an easy feel under the hands, while the GE Modified Low Oval neck with High Performance Taper keeps the guitar comfortable up and down the neck.

The Jeff Tweedy Burst finish is the visual centerpiece here, covering the body, neck, and headplate for a cohesive custom look. Antique white binding, a custom single ring rosette, faux tortoise pickguard, black ebony fingerboard, Foden Style Paua inlays, and Grover nickel StaTite tuners with vintage buttons complete the build.
