Martin D-18GE 2004 Sunburst – Golden Era with LR Baggs Pickup
The Martin D-18GE 2004 Sunburst (also referred to as D-18GE, d18ge, or d 18ge) is a highly sought-after model from the Golden Era series, offering vintage-inspired craftsmanship and tone. Built with a solid Adirondack spruce top and genuine mahogany back and sides, this dreadnought delivers incredible projection, clarity, and that unmistakable vintage Martin sound.
Its forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing adds dynamic resonance, while the modified V neck with a 1 3/4″ nut width provides authentic pre-war style playability. The Sunburst finish, tortoise pickguard, black binding, and ebony fingerboard and bridge give it a timeless look.
This guitar comes professionally fitted with an LR Baggs pickup system, making it stage- and studio-ready without sacrificing its natural tone. As a used / second hand Martin, it remains in very good condition, with only light cosmetic wear from normal play, some small dents. Importantly, there are no cracks, no structural repairs, and no buzzing. It includes its original Martin hardshell case.
If you’ve been searching for the best price deal on a Martin Golden Era, this D-18GE 2004 Sunburst with LR Baggs pickup is an outstanding choice and a rare opportunity to own one of Martin’s most respected dreadnoughts.
