6-string Acoustic Guitar with Adirondack Spruce Top, Rosewood Back and Sides, Select Hardwood Neck, and Rosewood Fingerboard – Dark Mahogany
Premium Tonewoods and Vintage Style
Martin’s 000-16 Streetmaster takes premium tonewoods, effortless playability, and a comfortable 000 body style and wraps it all up in a beautifully distressed finish. This guitar’s aged Adirondack spruce top and East Indian rosewood back and sides offer a formidable tonal punch that’s loaded with sparkling overtones and a deep low-end thump — a versatile combo that Sweetwater guitarists find fit to tackle almost any playing style. And while the 000-16 Streetmaster comes outfitted with vintage flair, its Modified Low-oval neck profile, Plek’d frets, and wide 1.75-inch nut width deliver decidedly modern playability. Finally, Martin’s Vintage Tone System (VTS) aging is applied to the 000-16 Streetmaster’s top, all adding up to a guitar that looks and sounds like a worn-in friend right out of the box.
Stiff Adirondack spruce top
At one time the standard on every spruce-topped Martin, the 000-16 Streetmaster’s Adirondack spruce top is a top-of-the-line feature rarely seen on guitars of this price point. While it’s more of a personal preference than an undeniable “upgrade,” Adirondack is a supremely stiff spruce that’s ideal for players who value volume and headroom above all else, with an unmatched projection among the guitar world’s various top woods. Plus, while Adirondack is famed for its tendency to open up over time, Martin’s VTS aging process gives you a well-aged tone from day one.
Stunning rosewood back and sides
Spruce and rosewood: the classic steel-string tonewood pairing for well over a century! The Martin 000-16 Streetmaster’s rosewood back and sides offer a resonant, overtone-laden tone that’s equally at home playing delicate fingerstyle as it is chunking out open-position chords. Combined with the Adirondack spruce top, this Martin is loaded with a deep bass response and a powerful projection that belie its comfortable 000 body size.
High-performance neck profile
While the 000-16 Streetmaster might look like a vintage classic, it sports a Modified Low-oval neck profile that’s built for modern performance. This neck’s slightly thinned-down style is comfortable for players of almost any genre, with just enough girth to reduce fatigue when playing through a long set or practice session. What’s more, the smooth rosewood fingerboard boasts Plek’d frets for an exceptionally precise, buzz-free playability.
