Martin 000-17

The Martin 000-17 is the ideal alternative for guitarists seeking a comfortable, versatile instrument with a unique sound.

Made entirely of mahogany, this guitar delivers a rich tone characterized by deep and dynamic mid-low frequencies. With a scale length of 24.9" and a scalloped bracing pattern, the 000-17 is particularly well-suited for fingerstyle playing.

Additionally, the satin finish and nickel hardware give it an elegant and "vintage" appearance.

This guitar is part of the 2025 Standard Series, which has further refined the already exceptional Standard Series Reimagined models to offer even higher performance, both in terms of sound and comfort.

A significant update is the adoption of the Golden Era bracing, previously reserved exclusively for Custom Shop productions, as well as the Modern Deluxe and Authentic series. This technical choice imparts an even fuller and richer sound to the instruments while maintaining the definition typical of Martin guitars.

Another improvement concerns the neck, which now features the Golden Era Modified “Low Oval” profile, thinner at the first frets for a more comfortable grip, but gradually thicker as you move up the fingerboard, thus enhancing overall ergonomics. The fingerboard is slightly thinner, reflecting the design of the historic Martin Pre-War models, and features rounded edges for greater comfort in handling.

The bridge has also been redesigned and now adopts the Golden Era Modern Belly design, echoing the bridges of Martin's Pre-War production.

Overall, the Martin Standard Series 2025 aligns even more closely with the traditional construction standards of the brand, offering instruments with authentic character and improved playability.
