Auditorium Acoustic With Vintage Styling and a Balanced Sound

The left handed Martin 000-17L Black Smoke acoustic guitar features vintage looks and modern appointments that give it a balanced tone and silky playability. Featuring a Solid Sitka Spruce top with Mahogany back and sides in a vintage Black Smoke finish, the lefty Martin 000-17 delivers rich low end tones with balanced mids and ample harmonics that make the 000-17 a favorite among fingerstyle players. With an auditorium size body and a scale length of 24.9“, this lefty Martin 000-17 Black Smoke acoustic delivers premium comfort and a focused sound.

The modern appointments that make this lefty Martin 000-17 so comfortable to play include Martin’s Modified Low Oval neck profile with High Performance Taper and a silky satin finish that makes moving around the fretboard of this 000-17 really easy. A 20-fret Rosewood fingerboard also adds to the harmonic richness and warmth of this lefty Martin’s tone.

The 000-17‘s straight forward appointments, like simple fretboard inlays and minimal ivoroid binding and pickguard, are combined with premium hardware appointments like Golden Age Relic Nickel tuners, a Rosewood bridge and compensated bone nut and saddle, giving this lefty Martin 000-17 a distinctly modern feel while preserving that prized Martin Pre-War aesthetic.
