All user reviews for the Martin & Co 000-15

All solid mahogany guitar has all floors
handle in one piece as Martin knows how this is becoming rare
very easy to play, fluid run.

UTILIZATION

guitar comes with a fairly high action. You, if you are careful, or failing that, a good luthier will ground.
What I did after six months of use has both the truss rod and the bridge of bone.
Light guitar, very resonant with said open pore varnish mat that is very wise on this type of guitar

SOUNDS

very versatile, it excels in blues, finger picking.
Superb midrange and treble felt .She well put 1-year open, mahogany forces. She glosses over time, this is the most beautiful effect.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 6 years and this is one of my guitars that I take the most pleasure. The more you play, the more it becomes essential.
This is the kind of guitar 0 defects, we never resell.
Council put light strings if you play with your fingers, action will be lower sana power loss, and facilitates appreciable game.

UTILIZATION

- What struck me trying this guitar before buying it, is its ease of handling and comfort (I play a lot with the growing above the handle). I felt good, thick enough to handle as well have it in hand.
- The guitar is trslgre, and rsonnance of the box just by tapping with the fingertips impressed me.

SOUNDS

It is suitable both in play and note note Ragit well with some strong attacks. The grain is l.
Trs in nice rhythm, with or without mdiator.
Picking out the trs blues too.
For cons, I find it less suitable for the game and picking arpges "pop" (I work from Leforestier right now). I think it should be a high-mdium more honest to gain precision. CHARACTERISTICS This is a not a default of the guitar. You can not have everything!

OVERALL OPINION

In résumé I'd say it's the blues guitar of choice: sound, brand legends, an instrument that will bonnifier over time, from a look and still accessible prices.
I put a score of 10 for this point: there is no better in this price This category l.

Guitar size of 000 in Martin, budget economic (for Martin). It is a small format, for those who do not know.

The guitar is solid mahogany for the table and the neck, and mahogany veneer and wicker covers for the bottom.

<=============>
Added 04/03/2004
Indeed, from the view of slowhand73 of 03/03/2004, it seems that Martin is now put on the back of the massif and wicker covers the 000-15: good news!
"Solid Sapele or Genuine Mahogany."
This n'tait not as clearly expressed at the time of the publication of my opinion Premire o one could read on the site Martin:
"Top: Solid Mahogany"
material back / side material: Mahogany "
I always thought that the wording of Difference silent and showed the desired prsence plywood without saying, as do other factors guitars on their site.
Beware of buying used.

[Slowhand: good scratch, eh?]
<=============>

Button and the bridge are rosewood.
The construction is simple trs, no dcoration (not even a binding) from the rosette, trs itself simple, in fact a collage. Obviously, the cost is not passed in the visual arts.
The guitar is very well built, to show the junction perfect table-Sides, visible as there is no binding at all.
The guitar DGIG a print or even Australian sober because of the lack of dcoration.

The Martin mcaniques are obviously oil bath was then expected to take the hard way.
The bridge is ankles, I prfre when the strings do not cross the table, but hey, we will not make a mountain, right?

UTILIZATION

Channel trs enjoyable, like all the satin finish of the guitar elsewhere; Access in acute normal. The guitar is well lgre balance.

The handle is a bit hollow rgl my taste, it seems that this is the typical US rglage to allow the player to beat up on the agreements without a frieze. Rglage rod is available, so no problem in perspective for those like me who want a. rgler

The sound is ... ben to know, will have to read more.

SOUNDS

Then the ITS?

Well, it's Martin (no kidding!), But morning Obviously something else.
Treble doing well, the mdiums as well as serious, but the guitar is not as crystal clear as one might expect from the brand: trs is probably the effect of the mahogany table.

That said, it is clear what can cost suprieur usual in this price range, and the power of the guitar is thunder, A model for this format. The bass sound like an organ pipe. Awesome I tell you.

All sounds, chords, arpges, picking the blues.
In blues, it's even pretty good, mahogany being responsible for "dirty" sound that ds just frankly attack the strings.
This is a guitar that has the personality, we can not say. So a can not appeal.

OVERALL OPINION

I tried this guitar last Saturday for about three quarters of an hour in a store in Paris, quiet (if has any). The test is forcment incomplete.

However, the charm has acted, and I think that one day I let myself be tempted by the beautiful.
A Martin, with a personality certainly diffrent standards of the brand, but it did not lose by the change. It's just DIFFERENT.

Between 1000 and € 1300 now on Paris, sold his tui Martin, aa all the air a good opportunity. At least for anyone who wants a guitar out of the ordinary, which does not pay mine dcoration and not sound "too" bright.

A 8 / 10 for the report qualitprix anyway.

I recorded a notice in my old e-axis pseudo old. There's not much to change what I said the era, except that now I can test my soil, as is the beautiful home.

For résumé, a guitar trs simple then, but all the solid advantages.
No big notes because no COD. In addition, the look is pretty satin mahogany Austre (as my friend Paul)

And I still do the pins on an easel. If not, was burly. Nothing wrong.

It comes with a hard-tui (plywood), but a little cheap, not too adjusted to mm. But it is always better than a cover. And Martin has the logo always showing off, at least for people who know what that has meant (that is - say 0.5% of the guys, and 0.000186% of girls)
.

UTILIZATION

All's Well as I said prcdemment, and I bought the guitar is also to RULES action a little high, typical Martin seems, for the Reserved in case of bastonnage rhythm.
Like me I made a more or picking blues, I was rglerai with onions, ds I would change the original strings (new) by others of pulling a little harder .

Channel trs comfortable size guitar comfortable trs.
No dcoupe, so access to acute problmatique me, but for what I play, has not impede me.
.
The guitar is trslgre, it's almost thunderous.
A small dtail trs always makes me happy: she feels dead wood. Trs is enjoyable.
.

SOUNDS

VERY GOOD sounds, we can not believe it for a guitar like this. There's no say, they know how to build guitars to Martin.
The vibration of the strings of sympathy is impressive (in fact, is one of my CRITERIA test when I test guitars). We feel that the table rpond nickel vibration.

Sound power level, it did not blush before my Taylor which should cost three times its price (now, as an era c'tait Taylor still reasonable). At equilibrium, the balance is quite nice, with good reserve of bass and treble even when well-Submitted.

Should be compared with a large dreadnought Martin to be able to complain (sr it must pay the choice of its small size and woods somewhere, 000-15), though, it sounds trs well, I trs enjoyable'm surprised.

Has to be seen how all ages a.
No max score because that is the entry level and Martin knows forcment do even more beautiful, but must compare like with like. Anyway, as I said dj, they know how to build guitars to Martin.

Added 1 month APRS use.
The treble seemed a bit down compared to low. If I had to give a spectrum for this guitar, I would say it favors low mdiums.
I think he will not give hsiter ropes that promote shine.

I did it! I changed the type of strings
Monte with Elixir nano-web, taking regular (but I will pull the medium one day 13/57), a sound more balance. L is almost perfect.
And it still tonnament powerful guitar of this size.
.

OVERALL OPINION

I really aimbr /> - its quality of manufacture.
- The price (840 euros in new Paris store)
- Its sounds
- Whether tui book, especially the price
- Its rglages (ready employment, RULES, new ropes)
- The report qualitprix, indcent (for the price of a skyscraper, I like a Martin said the pub)

I aimbr /> - a dcoupe for treble
- Action a little lower (still going to have to file pfffff .... I mean the bridge saddle, dgoutants!)
- A finishing coat over (the bridge is a little crude dcoup!)
- Dco a minimalist (but had to make a choice, for this price)

I tried many other guitars sr, but in this price range, I think it is better than the other, at least for me what I do (picking, blues, rhythm small. ..). I compare other gard but for others, I will not say too much about ...

The Martin CHRE not even when not given, but what you pay can be heard well. And it's all good. Now, sr it's not exactly the sound MARTIN (construction requires all mahogany).

Well, in short, I'm pretty happy. I think I'll keep it finally

Manufacturing amricaine. Anything.
For the composition of the guitar it should be site rfrer Martin & Co, see surf the net on the websites of retailers.
The important thing is that the whole guitar is in solid.

UTILIZATION

Channel enjoyable.
It reminds me of my Les Paul Faded, while also mahogany. A handle end and quite enjoyable to play. Biensr not easy for ACCS agus but you can of the same couraging solos.

Guitar 000 is a form j'apprcie. Yet I get out of a box Jumbo Jasmine a royal-sounding small format but I do not impede at all on the contrary, I do not even feel it when I play sitting or standing. Lgre?? Ha yes it is super lgre.

SOUNDS

While the ...

The very first time I scratched his agreement on the guitar I t profondment. To read the reviews and dealers in the words, I would be transported to another plant. Sound Martin??
In fact this guitar prsence been lacking. Low absent, acute a bit shy, only had the mdiums MRIT to exist. I then see all prs dealer from home. My strings as new (heavy bcp too big), he advised me pulling a light and Phosphorus / Bronze. So I changed the game of rope. Et .....

A REAL BLAST! Phew I was afraid. Actually the guitar sound much better than before. Everything is there. I have not had the opportunity to try another Martin, but I must say that it works. This guitar is up to my expectancy at. The sound is the yeah I am a sr now, in addition to a US-made known.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this guitar used. She has five years (Nde SERIES forces). I bought it the week dernire. I disassemble everything cleaned everything I pampered, scrubbed down the table, the rib ... it is like new, beautiful. It's true that at first she did not seem to be a great guitar, no finishes. But then the ds that scratches on s'apperoit soon as one is an instrument prsence Martin.

I was afraid of his trs the very first time but I realized that the strings do not match, I put the 1818th Light 12/53 Adamas Phosphor / Bronze. Today's rings, its shine, it's enjoyable trs ear.

I like its design amricaine all the pros will tell you, the massive guitar, shape and weight. I also like the sound it gives me and the sustain of the note. It DGIG the required acoustic and trs well despite its small form 000.

Today I do it again this choice, but remember that the game of rope is important in the trs sound of an instrument.

The Martins, as everyone knows, are manufactured in Nazareth, the Judean country that has exported to the United States, where Jesus was born, it is normal that the miracles of stringed instruments are manufactured there, right?

It is therefore a model auditorium (000), the 00015. Smaller than a guitar dreadnough. I also tried the D15, but I fell for the grain more medium and form "mini jumbo" to 00015. Model while solid mahogany except rosewood fingerboard. Here, the evaluation is completely subjective: I love the simple and minimalist violin instrument. Than wood and only wood, no frills and mahogany is just beautiful to me. The reddish-brown suits me perfectly. The matt varnish is perfect, do not take fingerprints registered, and the smell of wood is intoxicating. Comes with a nice box and more. Only comment, polish the varnish is where the right arm.

UTILIZATION

The handle is not too thin or too wide for my hands are small. In general, I prefer the thick sleeves. The grip is very comfortable. The string action is a bit high, but after a few hours of use, it does not bother me that much. I will drop a chouilla action a few months. So, how access to sharp criticism of a guitar that is not made for that. It has no cut-and so. Why evaluate this criterion for this guitar? That said, when you know its handle, play mid, or if in the in the high register is not a problem. The body is slightly bulky and the handle very nice, this guitar is easy to play. Touch is simply excellent. We feel that going to a higher category. Any guitarist who has a little bit out a good bottle of n'improte what his guitar, but it sounds good, even very well from the first note.

SOUNDS

I bought my Martin because I was looking for that sound. Of course, this is not a Dreadnough of 68 as the father of a friend, but found a similar nature. I tried Guild is very bright and a little dirty at the same time fun. Taylors of: too bright, too clean, no thank you. Martin sounds a rather dull, she reasons rather well, the sound is very balanced. The particularity of this one is that it sounds very very dull for a Martin. Really means the wood vibrates, it is very far from the cling cling models below. The notes are very defined and precise, the sustain is very good. It's a perfect guitar for blues, jazz and even picking. Accompanying folk, it is rather between Nick Drake, Dylan, Sinatra for their felted pieces. In open chords at full speed (Celtic type), not the guitar thing. This guitar is very distinctive and will not suit everyone. But for about 900 euros, you get a real high quality instrument. I put 9 because at the moment, the guitar is new and it will take some years to fully open, and while there, it should be a marvel.

Another important despite the small box, it sends the small wood!

OVERALL OPINION

Since I bought a week ago, I only play this guitar, my electric are stored in their cases and out only for rehearsals. At first I found the sound a bit dull and then she has begun to open, like a Bordeaux which settles ... I even find that the sound is already improving by the day. I love its shape, wood, smell, touch and especially his very definite, clear, it produces. It is dull, but very crispy (I can find no other term), it has a lot of body, character, how it lives! This guitar is a guitar that is a long-term partner. I had no regret to sell certain electric, a Cort acoustic too. This one, I do not part with it any time soon (I do not think that will happen elsewhere). With experience, given the value for money (well, of course, is not given), but yes, this choice I would do without hesitation.

The Martin 000-15 Has manufactures in the United States, Pennsylvania Nazareth, the key is in India rose to high quality and the rest of the guitar (body, neck and head) in Mahogany tr s also great quality. It is not electrified, I ask the microphone body and a piezo for sound ...

UTILIZATION

The handle is perfect for me, the width of the handle as fine enough and the key in a rose bush I can approach INTERESTED enough of a sound such as that I expect from a guitar.
Access in acute, however, is a different story for little hands, but we must point to this is by no means a guitar fate for a.
A Premire view, a strong Western guitar friendly and simple to the mono color, but THE FIRST thing that made me upset silent mini jumbo shape, but then when I take suitcase weight tonn me greatly I could not, a surprising lgret!
For me its a huge compared to the price, there are guitars of the same price and size that did not happen ... rope? (HAHA) The bass and treble than good! for such a small body itch it almost my Gibson J-200 to tell you, and then the velvet is this guitar, there's barely touching the strings for a sound, a guitar high sensitivity . And I would say even more, more and more is a sound s'amliore ...

SOUNDS

It is ideally suited my style of music and even play my fawn, I make the pop-folk ...
I love his sound mtallique soft and warm, trs sound paradoxical, a sound we do not often hear, especially the one that must be tamed and aim it has good trs harmonies, a sound that you can feel in the gut, it will rock the body of his guitar that will make it vibrate: P!!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a little less than a year, features I most apprci smell, weight, shape, color, sound ...
Try as I had much more guitar gibson CHRE of such or other guild or martin or taylor and so on, none knew conqurir me more than this, I ' I bought on the stroke of lightning, since I do lche more and I think it does me no if lchera tt ... qualitprix the report is perfect although it is 1250 euros in stores franais, it is at around the 800 900 on thomann, ensured more characters than the guitars doing the double or triple its price ...
And trs honntement if I had the choice again, I would plutt twice that!

The Martin & Co 000-15 is a beautiful jumbo style acoustic guitar. The guitar is made out of mostly solid genuine mahogany wood, which gives it an incredible look and sound. Like all Martin guitars, it was made in the USA - in Nazareth, PA to be exact. It's not an acoustic/electric, so there aren't any pick ups or electronics inside this guitar...

UTILIZATION

The overall feel of the Martin & Co 000-15 is nothing short of impeccable. It plays just as good as any guitar I've used before, as the real wood really seems to make a difference. It's an absolute pleasure to pick up the guitar and play it as it seems incredibly easy to play on this when compared to other guitars. It's easy to play up and down the fretboard and it couldn't be easier to get a nice sound from it.

SOUNDS

The tone of the Martin & Co 000-15 is as rich as the look of the guitar. It's the perfect guitar for recording as it has a natural sound that makes recording acoustic guitar easy and an absolute pleasure. It's only acoustic so you don't have much wiggle room here to change your tone, but trust me when I say that you aren't going to need it. It's a got a jumbo style body which accounts for it's more biting sound rather than the more lush sound you'd get with a dreadnought, but all of this just adds to it's great sound. I've only played a few guitars out there that I'd put on the same level as this one.

OVERALL OPINION

The Martin & Co 000-15 is one of the cheapest ways you can get an incredible all wood acoustic guitar. It's as nice as some guitars double and triple it's price that I've played as I really think it's up there with some of the best being made today. I don't need to try to sell you a Martin, there's good reason why they're the best in the game when it comes to acoustics guitars and the 000-15 is proof!
