Great Choice of Guitar
By Wade L. Covington
I have had this guitar for five years....it is top notch. I have just recently (finally) gotten an amp; which doubled the pleasure of this guitar. The cedar lining is a great welcome when pulling this guitar from the case. I buy Martin because it is made in the USA and its manufacturing is deep rooted in America. I am not calling anyone a liar, but I really hope Martin is not really making these guitars in Mexico now...I will be very dissapointed.

I recently bought this exact guitar (but mine was Made in USA), I believe the newer ones are made in Mexico... which is OK as Martin abides by its own very HIGH standards. I picked this up for a major steal for $225 including case. When I heard about Martin and their 'High Pressure Laminates' I was totally put off by it. I have a all solid wood 000-15 and my brother a HD-28... if you say laminate and guitar I think of a kitchen Mica top trying to sound like a stringed instrument... and at that time I could not fathom a guitar could sound as warm, articulate and have that MARTIN sound from a kitchen counter top material.Well my entire mind has been blown, first of all this is NOT plastic or a poly laminate by any stretch... but actual wood fibers pressed under extreme pressure. But who cares what the science tells us... its... how does this damn guitar sound when I strum an open G chord.... and I was literally blown away by it!! Warm, delicate, inviting and open. Everything I love about the Martin sound now available in a NON sold wood guitar. On top of that the body is thin but the sound IS NOT. Excellent elctronics which make this a awesome electric without any feedback.Martin, my hats off to you sir.. a JOB WELL DONE!!!! You have made my 000-15 a little jealous as it shall be sitting in its case a bit longer as I enjoy this guitar more and more :-)

By DCJr
I've had this guitar about 6 weeks now, and I'm still thrilled every time I play it. It was set up well and played beautifully right out of the box. You can feel the Martin quality throughout this instrument.Although at the lower end of the Martin price scale - I paid $649 for it - I'd say it sounds as good as most guitars in the $1500-$2000 range.I travel to Nashville quite often and some of the top session players I spoke to were saying this guitar was superb value for money - they weren't wrong.The thin body gives a surprisingly full sound, even without amplification. Acoustically, it's not the loudest guitar in the world, but the tone more than makes up for that. It's great through an amp too. The Fishman EQ is fairly basic but does the job, and there's a built in tuner.Also, for all you small folk out there - of which I'm one - if a dreadnought or jumbo are uncomfortable for you to wrap your arm around, This guitar may just be the perfect fit.I'm struggling to find anything negative to say about this - did I mention it looks great too! - It could be a little louder, but that's about it.All in all one of the best purchases I've ever made.
