Martin 000-17 Acoustic-Electric Guitar Whiskey Sunset
The Martin 000-17 acoustic-electric guitar expertly combines a vintage aesthetic with modern playability and sound. This guitar represents the heart and soul of Martin’s craftsmanship, offering musicians a blend of traditional design elements and cutting-edge features.
The top of the Martin 000-17 is crafted from spruce, known for its bright tonal quality and exceptional dynamic range. This is coupled with a mahogany back and sides that lend a warm, resonant tone to the instrument’s overall sound. The body’s Whiskey Sunset burst finish adds a distinct and gorgeous aesthetic appeal that is truly captivating.
The neck has a Modified Low Oval profile that fits comfortably in the hand for a smooth playing experience and joins the body at the 14th fret. With a 16″ fingerboard radius and Mother-of-Pearl 1955 Style 18 inlays, the Martin 000-17 feels and looks as good as it sounds.
Sound projection is maximized by the scalloped spruce X-Brace, which also enhances the guitar’s tonal balance. A bone nut, measuring 1.75″, provides optimal string spacing and improved resonance. The Golden Age Relic Nickel tuning machines guarantee precise tuning and add a vintage touch to the instrument.
For amplified performance, the Martin 000-17 comes equipped with onboard electronics. They allow you to easily plug into any amp or PA system without losing the rich, natural acoustic sound of the guitar. The rosewood modern straightline bridge with a drop-in saddle maintains string stability and contributes to the guitar’s sustained tone.
Finally, this guitar includes a Martin gig bag for easy transport and protection. The Martin 000-17 Whiskey Sunset Burst Acoustic-Electric Guitar, with its compelling combination of classic and contemporary, is a testament to Martin’s legendary heritage.
