Martin 000-18E Retro

Martin Retro Series er resultatet av et tett samarbeid mellom selskapet og Fishman Electronics. Ved å bruke Fishmans fantastiske Aura-teknologi til å lage lydbilder fra de fantastiske Golden-Era-instrumentene fra Martin-museet, har Retro-modellene utseendet til vintage instrumenter men med spillbarheten til nye, fantastisk utformede gitarer. Mye energi ble brukt i jobben med å fange det tonale DNA fra de originale gitarene, inkludert bruk av vintage mikrofoner for å få opptakslyden så nøyaktig som mulig. Retro-instrumentene leverer virkelig Golden-Era-soundet når du plugger dem inn i forsterker eller PA. På tross av patinaen fra gamle tider har Retro-modellene en ny lettspilt hals med lav, oval profil som gjør dem til en fornøyelse å spille på.

Based upon a beautiful 1940 14-fret 000-18 "donor" guitar from the Martin Museum collection, this 24.9" short scale model produces clear and expressive response for stage or studio use. With modern performance and playability, the 000-18E Retro offers the visual and tonal integrity of the genuine mahogany auditorium guitars from the pre-war era.
