In the history of guitarmaking, no acoustic has been as influential and groundbreaking as the Martin Dreadnought. Interestingly, the very first Dreadnought guitars weren't sold with the Martin name on them. Starting in 1916, Martin built guitars for the Oliver Ditson company, and the original dreadnoughts were sold with a Ditson stamp and Ditson's own serial numbering system. The 1916 Ditson Model 111 pave the way for the D-18, which didn't roll out of Nazareth until 1931.  In 2007, Martin celebrated the original Ditson dreadnoughts with the Special Edition D-111. This model features a 12-fret dreadnought body with an Adirondack Spruce top and Mahogany back and sides.
