“A Different Side Of Martin”.

Nylon-string warmth meets Martin’s legendary character in this 000C Nylon, a beautifully balanced instrument that offers a refreshing alternative to the conventional classical guitar. With its comfortable 000 body, 12-fret neck and cutaway design, it has a wonderfully accessible feel, while the distinctive Martin construction gives it plenty of depth and projection.

The nylon-string response is rich, clear and expressive, making this a particularly rewarding guitar for fingerstyle playing, classical repertoire or simply exploring something a little different. The Fishman F1 Analog electronics also make it easy to bring that character to an amplifier or PA when required.

This example is in good played condition, with the expected signs of use but no fret wear. There are a few slight scratches and marks across the instrument, along with some sheen developing in the satin finish around the typical higher-contact areas. The main cosmetic issue is the binding coming away on the back, predominantly around the waist.

A distinctive and highly playable Martin with plenty of character, this 000C Nylon offers a superb combination of traditional nylon-string warmth and modern playability
