I've just bought this guitar in the black smoke finish and I can tell you that none of the UA-cam videos capture the real quality of this guitar. I'm not being disrespectful it's just that this Martin guitar has a beautiful tone and the projection is amazing, you will only feel and hear this when you get one on your knee. Amazing instrument.
when I read about this guitar it said"solid spruce top with mahogany back & sides. From my experience if its solid wood they put the word "solid" in front of mahogany back & sides. So is it all solid wood?? many thx
I've tried this guitar at two different shops and both had high action which put me off owning one, however they both sounded great and with the obvious Martin quality.
The high action is something you can fix ofcourse... Some people like that especially on a more "old skool" guitar like this one. And you cant shave any material onto the saddle... But you can take a couple of mm off without any problems usually.
It will probably start to sound a bit muddy because of the smaller dimensions. The sound travels at the same speed ofcourse as in a larger guitar but because of the smaller dimensions it bounces around more and interferes more with itself. Yes this is a 100% guesswork but thats what it sounds like to me.

Sigma 00MSE is a cheap semi-solid 00 that is really nice...This video made ma want a 00, but for my budget.
do the s and the l have the same body size?
Wow! Definitely sounds more like a Martin, but it also sort of sounds like if a Martin and Gibson had a baby and it took more after its Martin parent.
Or maybe a Martin and a Stella
what is the song in the beginning, it's killing me that I definitely know that riff but can't remember the song. thanks.
Just wondering if it was short or long scale on the neck?

Most Martins are high from the factory. A good setup will fix it. At least it did for my 000-17
This 00 or the CEO which one should I get
It’s called a set up!?!? Every guitar should be set up after u buy it. Fucking idiots

Just curious, why wouldn't you want to strum this guitar very hard? Like you said.

Because people are afraid of scratching it 😂lol it sounds amazing strummed loud. That’s why I bought it
It would sound small and tinny compared to my j50 for example
A little quiet
