The Martin 000-17 combines vintage design with modern playability. This all-mahogany acoustic guitar offers the sweet, woody resonance that only genuine mahogany can provide. Its comfortable 000-14 fret body feels like an old friend, ready to handle aggressive blues or delicate fingerstyle melodies with authentic tone.
Classic Tone and Feel
A great acoustic guitar is only as good as the engine under its hood. The 000-17 boasts a completely refreshed bracing architecture borrowed from Martin’s high-end vintage replicas, giving it a massive voice that defies its mid-sized frame.
GE-Scalloped X-Bracing: Sitka spruce Golden Era top bracing allows the mahogany soundboard to flex freely, resulting in a breathy, blooming sustain that sounds like it's been aging in a smoky parlor for decades.
All-Mahogany Magic: The solid mahogany top, back, and sides deliver a punchy midrange and focused, woody trebles that sit perfectly in a dense mix or command the room in a solo performance.
Balanced Proportions: The 000-14 fret shape offers the ideal acoustic sweet spot — punchier than a dreadnought, louder than a parlor, and wildly comfortable for long studio sessions.
Playability That Pushes You Forward
Struggling with a stiff neck should be reserved for morning commutes, not evening picking sessions. Martin overhauled the tactile experience of the 000-17 to ensure your hands stay happy, seamlessly merging vintage profiles with modern comfort enhancements.
Short Scale Sweetness: The 24.9-inch short scale length reduces string tension, making aggressive bends a breeze and giving the overall tone a warmer, mellower, and exceptionally inviting character.
GE Modified Low Oval Neck: This hardwood neck profile provides a fast, vintage-inspired grip with just enough mass to anchor your hand. It's finished in a smooth satin that won't get sticky, even under hot stage lights.
Comfort Bevel Edge: The refined ebony fingerboard features a gently rounded comfort bevel, eliminating sharp edges so you can slide effortlessly up and down the neck.
Timeless Appointments
It takes a certain kind of confidence to look this subtly striking. The 000-17 wears its working-class roots on its sleeve with a gorgeous, no-nonsense aesthetic that looks stunning on stage and feels reassuringly rugged in your hands.
Satin Finish: A dark, moody satin finish covers the entire body, minimizing restrictive lacquer to let the tonewoods vibrate wildly while offering a beautifully understated, glare-free look.
Refined Ebony Bridge: The GE modern belly ebony bridge features smoothed corners for comfortably resting your palm, paired with bone bridge pins that wring every last drop of sustain out of the instrument.
Nickel Open-Gear Tuners: Classic, butter-smooth open-gear tuning machines keep your pitch rock-solid while adding a crucial dash of golden-era visual flair to the headstock.
The Ultimate Modern Classic
The Martin 000-17 Acoustic Guitar delivers old-school soul without sacrificing modern reliability. It's a superbly crafted, road-ready instrument that honors Martin's rich heritage while meeting the needs of today's working musicians. Pack it in the included hardshell case, take it to your next gig, and let the songs flow.
