Martin 00C16DBGTE Deep Body Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The Martin 00C-16DBGTE is a beautiful Deep Body Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar. Style 16 guitars were first introduced in 1961 to provide an affordable, high-quality Martin instrument with understated appointments. Later they were the first production Martins to utilize sustainable, native woods such as ash and walnut, as well as the first to implement hybrid A-frame X bracing.

Today the innovative 16 SERIES guitars are offered in a variety of sizes, gloss and satin finishes, cutaway and standard models, onboard electronics and premium solid woods including mahogany, East Indian rosewood, koa, sapele and maple.
