Here's a great opportunity to get an incredible instrument, at an equally incredible value. The Martin 000-15M puts first-class Martin craftsmanship and world-renowned tonewoods into an instrument without an offending price tag. In fact, the 000-15M may be one of the best values you'll find. It features an all-mahogany body for an extremely warm-sounding tone. Strummers love it. Fingerstyle players adore it too. And the darker wood gives you a special look that stands out when you're performing or recording. When it's classic tone you're after, with top-shelf workmanship and artistry going into the instrument, you'll no doubt want a Martin - the Martin 000-15M!
There's a good reason why singer/songwriters swear by all-mahogany acoustic guitars such as this Martin 000-15M. The naturally warm and lively tone of mahogany both is extremely forgiving and also provides a rich tonal complexity that's somewhat reminiscent of an electric sound. At the same time, the slightly deeper voice of this 000-15M leaves plenty of sonic space for a vocal, acting as an excellent source of accompaniment.
The forward, balanced tone of the 000-15M comes from its Auditorium body style. This body style provides excellent projection and focus, perfect for competing with a banjo (which was a common combination in the '30s). The Auditorium body style also gives you well-balanced tone, making this 000-15M perfect for recording in the studio.
Whether you need to survive long recording sessions or plan to play out late into the night, you'll be glad you got a Martin 000-15M acoustic guitar. It features one of Martin's amazing modified low-oval neck profiles, which gives you enough girth to hold onto while still allowing you to play faster lines unhindered. It has a standard neck taper, and the Plek'd frets and smooth rosewood (East Indian) fingerboard ensure a playing experience that few guitars can offer.
The 000-15M model continues the Martin tradition with a 000-14 fret body size, solid mahogany construction and a rich satin finish. Satisfy your desire with an affordable solid wood guitar that is visually distinctive and innovative. Due to material availability this guitar is designed with either a tortoise pattern or black pickguard. Selection may vary.
