The Martin 000-17 offers a distinct look and a sound that feels familiar from the first strum. It combines a vintage-inspired aesthetic with modern neck profiles to create an instrument that’s as easy to play as it is to listen to. With its understated satin finish and contrasting binding, this guitar is designed for players who appreciate simple, well-crafted tools.
A Warm, Balanced Voice
This guitar is built to deliver a sound that’s articulate yet full of character. The combination of tonewoods results in a voice that works well for a variety of playing styles, from fingerpicking to strumming.
Solid Sitka Spruce Top: This industry-standard top wood provides clear projection and responsiveness, allowing your playing dynamics to shine through with clarity.
Mahogany Back and Sides: The mahogany body adds a rich, woody warmth to the tone, balancing the brightness of the spruce top for a grounded sound.
Warm, Comforting Tone: The overall voicing is intimate and warm, making it an ideal choice for songwriters and studio recording sessions where nuance matters.
All Around Comfort
Martin equipped the 000-17 with features that prioritize the player's experience. The body shape and neck profile are engineered to reduce hand fatigue and make navigating the fretboard effortless.
000-14 Fret Body Size: The auditorium-style body sits comfortably against the player, offering a manageable size that is easy to hold without sacrificing volume or depth.
Modified Low Oval Neck: This modern profile fits naturally in the hand, providing a secure, comfortable grip for chords and lead lines alike.
Performing Artist Taper: The neck width tapers slightly, allowing for faster, easier movement up and down the fingerboard for complex chording or solos.
Vintage Style and Quality Materials
The visual appeal of the 000-17 comes from its thoughtful details and high-quality components. It carries a classic look that creates a striking aesthetic without relying on flashy ornamentation.
Satin Finish: A smooth, low-gloss finish gives the instrument an aged, broken-in feel and allows the wood to resonate freely without heavy lacquer.
Guatemalan Rosewood Components: The fingerboard and bridge are crafted from Guatemalan rosewood, adding both visual contrast and a smooth, durable playing surface.
Ivoroid Binding: These cream-colored details provide a sharp, classic contrast against the dark satin finish, highlighting the guitar's shape and vintage vibe.
A Reliable Companion
The Martin 000-17 is a versatile acoustic guitar that balances traditional design with modern playability. Whether you’re practicing at home or performing on stage, it offers a reliable and inspiring playing experience. It comes complete with a soft-shell case, ensuring it’s always ready to travel wherever the music takes you.

This Guitar Is Absolutely Amazing
This guitar looks and sounds so good! Right out of the box I realized the neck on this guitar feels better than any other Martin I have ever played ( and I have played many) .

Excellent Guitar
The Martin 00017 acoustic guitar is extremely versatile and well built. Excellent tone woods that are ideal for figuring picking and wonderful for flat picking as well. The craftsmanship is the most impressive and the whiskey sunset sunsets finish is simply beautiful!

Overall the best acoustic I've owned.
This is the first guitar I've ever purchased online, and to be honest, I was nervous but I couldn't be more pleased with what I was sent. I have Jerry Cantrell's guitar tech as my luthier and this guitar, right out of the box, felt like he set it up himself. I literally wouldn't change a single thin...
