Martin expands its iconic dreadnought legacy with the new Super D series, delivering a larger body design that increases air volume by roughly 20% for enhanced resonance, deeper bass, and expanded harmonic clarity. Featuring a longer 12-fret body length and widened pre-war–inspired dimensions, the Super D models aim to offer piano-like balance while retaining the familiar Martin feel. The video also introduces the Molly Tuttle D-18 Artist Signature, a guitar rooted in early 1940s D-18 specifications with a full-feeling neck, narrower nut width, and rear-shifted bracing for added headroom and note separation. Together, these guitars showcase Martin’s blend of historic design and modern performance for flatpickers, bluegrass players, and recording musicians alike.

“You’re getting about 20% more air volume—that just means more of everything.”
