Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Very Good

Maybe the most comfortable acoustic body size for the electric player to adapt to. This guitar sounds magnificent! It has been barely used. The 000 "Auditorium" size still delivers nice rich tone, with clear attack and prescence. This is the type of guitar Martin is famous for in recent history. A wonderful marriage of Modern Craft with Classic / Vintage styling.

SP Luthier Notes: Setup Confirmed

From Martin and Co.

The 000-16GT acoustic guitar features the 000 or Auditorium platform, a smaller body version of the D-16GT, which incorporates modern guitar specifications with the famous Martin quality and sound. The solid mahogany back and sides complement the solid Sitka spruce top finished in a polished gloss. The smaller auditorium body size, short scale length, and modified low oval neck make the 000-16GT a very comfortable guitar to play, particularly for smaller hands.
