CF Martin 000M Acoustic Guitar

Comments about CF Martin 000M Acoustic Guitar:

I like Maritn guitars but to pay so much for a laminated side and back acoustic is against my religion. So what is a guy to do? find a nice Sam Ash used Martin D-15 and D16Gt like I did and you will have too solid wood Martins for the same price as this new one.

This is the 2nd OOO I've owned. The 1st became a victim of divorce. It sported an Indian Rosewood back and sides. I found this OOO-M and after playing it quietly in the back of my local string-meister's shop fell in love with the feel, sound and playability of this little beast. The Mahogany back and sides give her a warm timbre with a mellow projection brought to life in the spruce top. The whole range from deep lows to sweet mids and bright trebles seeps from every note of this little guitar. She frets easily and encourages one to try new things on it to sonically challenge the musical palate you are able to create with this sweet axe. When I was ready to leave the store another playing customer commented on how well I played and how sweet and rich the OOO sounded. That was it... I was back in about a half hour with a Taylor and some jack to make the trade complete and this sweet little instrument mine. Martin quality is written all over the OOO-M and when you play it, it is extremely evident attention to the instrument went into how it sounds and plays rather than appearance like so many other makers are doing now. I was very pleased as I've had some bad experiences with Martin over the last 15 - 20 years and didn't think I'd ever own another. But a Little Martin LXM changed all that and convinced me to look at Martin again like I did back in the 70's. I'm glad I did. Martin is now once again producing, in my opinion, some of if not, the, finest stringed instruments in the world. You have to shop a little and express yourself through the instrument and remember unless you have some reason for absolutely, positively having a D-28 or some such, check out some of the less expensive plain Jane Martins like the OOO's and you might just find more than a guitar... a soul mate in music. That's what Martin Guitars are all about.
