The d 18 sounds so much fuller and articulate- looks like you get what you pay for, Martin knows what they’re doing.

The 16 sounds great when you’re in the room and it records well. It only seems deficient when you’re playing the two back to back. You can always turn up the mix.

Omg the beginning with Maury nervously chatting, it’s the best. Maury I think we have the same brains. Hope to get a guitar from you again someday. A D-18 in fact! Sorry for all my emails over the years and few purchases, but you always treat me great regardless.

They are not supposed to sound the same. That’s why Martin created different models. The D16E is a Performance model, with 000 depth and built-in Electronics. It’s also about $900 cheaper. Currently, D18 Standard is $2800, New Satin is $2400. D16E-M is $1950. I found an Open Box D16E-M for $1300.

no comparison Thick full sound vs thinner nice light tone...18 is maybe the best overall guitar in the world

The D16e has a smaller body because it’s a performing artist stage instrument. It’s a shallow body of course it’s not going to be as deep, but it’s Brighter, and very comfortable.

I'm glad to see this is catching on! Great comparison of two beautiful guitars - shame I'm no longer in the market for dreadnoughts (even the shallow body D is uncomfortable for me). Cheers!

I recently purchased a D16 Martin and it’s a very good guitar. It sounds bright with lots of zing in the tone and with a mid range bass response. The D18 feels more solid being entirely made of mahogany and resonates beautifully not matter what the tune is being played. The bottom line is it doesn’t matter what model Martin you play they are simply the best steel string acoustic guitars available.

Just discovered this video, nice comparison. The D18 to me sounded to have more volume, but the tone between the two seemed very similar. specially when being finger picked.
@michaelhayes97733 жыл бұрын
I have a D-18 and a D-16E Rosewood and the D16 finger picks extremely well. For those who want a smaller guitar the D16 gives you the smaller size without the boxiness that people hear on a traditional 000 size guitar. The volume is there but it doesn't have all the overtones and deep bass of a traditional dreadnought. They are built as good as any guitar I have ever owned. Better than a lot of guitars. Now if I could get a Sinker mahogany D16 without the pickup and a traditional dovetail neck joint I would have the perfect guitar.

D-16 is $850 less than the D-18. The sound is very close, buy the whole set (d-28/d-35). It's easier than collecting cars. :)

I recently purchased a D16 mahogany and I wish I would have been able to have seen a review by owners and not salesman . The guitar is O K but that's it . Its very hard to play and the sound is O K . In my opinion this is a $1000 guitar at best . Thanks to KZbin for removing owners reviews .

What do you mean by ‘hard to play’? Did you have it professionally setup? News Flash, you buy a Martin, plan on needing a setup, otherwise it may be ‘hard to play’.
