Martin 0015M Acoustic Guitar With CaseIn response to suggestions from Martin Owners Club members, the Martin 0015M offers an authentic blues-type guitar reminiscent of small bodied Martins of the 1930's. Favored by legions of blues players, these mahogany bodied guitars have a warm tone and clear voice all their own. The 0015M is further enhanced tonally by Martin's A-frame Sitka bracing. A single ring wood rosette is used in keeping with the old 30s tradition. The genuine mahogany 14-fret neck has the classic solid headstock with vintage-style Gotoh tuners. Fingerboard and "belly" bridge are East Indian rosewood. Nut and compensated saddle are bone. This beautiful, soulful guitar is finished in satin lacquer over a rich dark-stained body. All you need to add is the blues.

| Amazing Value |
| Quality |
| Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? |
| The quality of this instrument is what blew me away. You get every cent of what you pay for. High grade materials throughout, even down to the bone nut & bridge and ebony bridge pins. All the seams are flawless. No label inside - the serial number, model, and make info are branded into the wood. |
| Reliability |
| How has it stood up over time? |
|
| Overall |
| Your general opinion of this product. |
| I could not be more happy with the purchase. |
| Playability and Feel |
| How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? |
| The neck feels great in my hand (small to medium hand size). The 1-11/16" nut makes for a somewhat narrow string spacing but this is pretty common across the several Martins I've played in stores. |
| Tone |
| Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? |
| Tone is remarkably smooth for this type of guitar. Other reviewers attribute this to the mahogany construction. It sounds perfect for fingerstyle blues (or really any fingerpicking for that matter). |
| Finish |
| How did the stain or paint job look? |
| The guitar looks amazing. Understated satin finish with dark mahogany stain. The wood had a rich vanilla scent to it. |
| Action |
| How was the action out of the box? |
| Action was just fine right out of the box. Low to medium low. |
