Martin 000-15M... a solid Mahogany guitar at a fantastic price!
All of our Martin 000-15M guitars are brand new, factory-fresh, come with a Martin softshell case and Martin Lifetime Warranty.
The Martin 000-15M is an incredible amount of guitar for the money. Built of all solid tonewoods throughout, it is a 14-fret 000 (Auditorium) size instrument made in Style 15, with all-Mahogany construction of the back, sides, neck, and top, supported by solid spruce bracing.
It has many vintage Martin features, including nickel open gear butterbean tuners, Diamonds & Squares fretboard markers in the prewar pattern, a solid rosewood fingerboard and bridge, and of course a satin finish just like the mahogany-topped Martins of bygone eras, including Bob Dylan's first Martin guitar, and those played by legendary stars including Woody Guthrie and Elvis Presley. Just as modern versions have appeared in the hands of players as diverse as Gabrielle Aplin, Eddie Vedder, Steve Earle, Kenneth Pattengale of the Milk Carton Kids, Jeff Tweedy of Wilco, and John Frusciante of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Other versions of the Martin 000-15M are also available:
While the rich, dark brown appearance sets them apart from spruce-topped guitars, it is the unique tone that is the real draw. The trebles are not as bright and shiny as heard from spruce soundboards. Instead they are rounder and polished, and there is a delightful bloom of warmth across the midrange heard only in mahogany-topped guitars. It is a hallmark of the 15 Series sound.
Martin didn't make a mahogany-topped model in a size as large as the 000 until modern times. And that auditorium body size amplifies that 15 Series sound with increased bass response and overall volume, while the 00015M remains comfortable when sitting down compared to the larger dreadnought size.
And for all its vintage vibe, the 00015M has the modern advantages of perfect intonation, thanks to the compensated bone saddle, and sleek 1-11/16" neck with Martin's popular Modified Low Oval profile.
