Description
This 16 Series Martin has an Auditorium body made from Granadillo back and sides, which provide a substantial bass response with chiming overtones, while a Sitka spruce top yields crisp highs and balances out the guitar's overall sound quite nicely. Plus, this guitar comes with Fishman Matrix VT Enhance electronics, so this acoustic's rich sound is fully translated when playing through an amp or PA. And thanks to a select hardwood neck with a high-performance taper, playability is of the utmost importance. If you're looking for an affordable Martin that with exceptional tonewoods and playability, then the 000-16E is a fantastic choice.
