Overview
Martin is refreshing its popular Standard Series lineup to bring subtle yet impactful refinements to enhance the look, tone, and playability of these iconic guitars, while introducing three models to the series - the 000-17, D-17, and OM-45.
- Blend of vintage appointments and modern refinements
- East Indian Rosewood back/sides with Spruce top
- Sitka spruce Golden Era (GE) top bracing
- Genuine Mahogany neck with Ebony fretboard
- Thinner fretboard with a gently beveled comfort edge
- Compensated Bone saddle
- Hardshell case included.
One of the key updates is Sitka spruce Golden Era (GE) top bracing, as featured on the Modern Deluxe Series, which offers a more vintage, breathy tone with enhanced sustain. The GE modified low oval neck profile maintains the popular modified low oval barrel shape but is optimized for vintage appeal with minimal increase in total mass. It's paired with playability enhancements like a thinner fingerboard with a gently beveled comfort edge and refined string spacing at the nut, while the GE modern belly bridge features smoother, more comfortable corners.
Standard Series guitars also feature bone or ebony bridge pins, depending on the model. Aesthetic updates include a long diamond neck transition, the nut cut on angle, and a sleeker vintage-style heel. These changes reflect feedback from Martin enthusiasts and valued partners, delivering a blend of vintage appointments and modern playability… read more enhancements. Players will notice improved comfort and vintage tones, particularly with the GE-inspired bracing and aesthetic refinements. Each model comes with a hardshell case.
