Custom Shop 0-18 - 2026 NAMM

Sonic Evaluation

This 0-18 caused all productive activity in the shop to cease as we passed it around, marveling at its shocking volume and dynamic responsiveness! It punches far above its weight class in loudness and headroom, and it has a wonderfully warm, sweet voice with a complex, nuanced midrange, surprisingly deep lows, and gorgeous sparkling trebles. It's also so responsive that it feels like an extension of your hand. It makes a world-beating fingerstyle guitar, but it also handles an enthusiastic flatpick quite well. If you like small-bodied Martins, this one will blow your mind!
