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!
