This guitar is in great condition. Recently set up with Elixir Nanoweb string, it plays great and sounds even better! Purchased from the original owner, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this instrument. Original hardshell case is included. A true classic worthy of standing alongside any of Martin’s flagship 18 and 28 series instruments, the Martin 000-15M is an all-solid-wood throwback to the brand’s historic all-mahogany guitars. It’s been the standard entry point for countless guitarists diving into the realm of American-made Martins, forgoing visual extravagance to focus on what really matters: uncompromising Martin tone. This guitar’s 000-sized foundation is built upon a solid mahogany top and solid mahogany back and sides — a complete tonal counterpoint to standard spruce-topped acoustics that is favored for its warm, compressed, and balanced tone. Next, the rosewood-topped mahogany neck offers a fast feel in your hands thanks to the Modified Low Oval profile. To complete this guitar’s depression-era aesthetic, you get old-school open-back tuners, Diamond and Square abalone inlays, and a sleek satin finish from headstock to endpin. Ideal for blues fingerpickers, singer/songwriters, country strummers, or any guitarist eying a fresh new acoustic tonality to explore, Martin’s 000-15m rounds out your 6-string toolbox with a depth and warmth that only mahogany can provide. All-solid, all-mahogany construction Crafted in Nazareth, PA, Martin’s 15 series instruments are defined by their all-mahogany, all-solid-wood construction. It’s a tone all its own that forms a darker, mellow sonic alternative to the legions of spruce-topped 6-strings. And while all-mahogany guitars are well equipped for standard strumming duties, they’re especially favored by Sweetwater’s fingerpickers — especially when found in small-bodied form. Championed by scores of blues pickers, folk musicians, old-school country musicians, and singer/songwriters, all-mahogany guitars elevate your 6-string toolbox with a rich and moody tone you can’t get anywhere else. Versatile 000-sized body shape More comfortable than a dreadnought but by no means a parlor guitar, Martin’s 000 body size resides in a sonic sweet spot within the 6-string taxonomy. It’s a true jack-of-all-trades size, granting you enough volume and projection for singer/songwriter strumming and fleet-fingered flatpicking, along with a responsive and intimate voice when taken into fingerpicking territory. What’s more, while Martin’s 000 models traditionally feature a shorter 24.9-inch scale length, the 000-15M’s standard 25.4-inch scale length supplies you with a snappier tonality with enhanced punch and power. Martin 15 series: all-mahogany tone since the 1930s Martin’s 15 series has served as the working musician’s entry point into the company’s realm of American-made, all-solid-wood guitars since the mid-1930s, with a charmingly rustic take to boot. Even today, their binding-free construction, subdued appointments, and tone can’t help but recall the blues fingerpickers and folk heroes of the Depression era. Furthermore, Martin’s 15 series guitars wear a smooth, sleek satin finish that mimics the dulled-down sheen of a well-aged Martin — and it’s particularly pleasant on your hands when you’re navigating the fast-playing Modified Low Oval neck.
