Folk Guitar
Sober looks, timeless tone: the warm sound of mahogany and spruce combines here with a hand-carved bracing resonating under the bonnet for a full, authoritative and clear sound. The vintage details of the good old D-18, like the open tuners, meet a modern, discreet neck for an old-soul sound and contemporary ergonomics.

Presentation
The D-18 model has been on the market since the mid-1960s.
It has been and remains a flagship model for several generations of musicians, in all styles and all types of music.
Most of the changes that have gradually taken place have helped it to stand the test of time, despite health restrictions on varnishes and the increasing scarcity of top-of-the-range tonewoods, without ever losing the very essence of this timeless model - its tone.
