High-end construction
This acoustic guitar is handcrafted from solid mahogany for a rich, warm sound. The craftsmen have paid attention to the smallest details to create a resolutely high-end instrument. The genuine mother-of-pearl soundhole and natural satin finish give this Martin an elegant, refined aesthetic.
Maximum comfort of the Auditorium shape
In terms of size, the 000 shape lies between the Dreadnought and the 000 steel-string acoustic guitar. It offers superior playing comfort. It gives you more bass and sustain than a classical steel-string acoustic guitar. Thanks to its versatility, it's the perfect choice for all guitarists.
Optimized resonance with A-Frame "X" bracing
The A-frame bracing supports the soundboard, and the X-shaped bracing is used to disperse vibrations evenly. Thanks to this format, you benefit from an important balance between strength, lightness and resonance.
Excellent playability
Several features of this acoustic guitar enhance its playability. The combination of mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard ensures a well-balanced sound. Its "Modified Low Oval/Standard Taper" profile is perfectly suited to a wide variety of hand sizes, enhancing comfort for everyone.
