Description

The Martin 000C 16RGTE is a testament to Martin's enduring legacy of craftsmanship and innovation. Perfectly suited for both seasoned musicians and passionate newcomers, this acoustic/electric guitar combines traditional artistry with modern technology to offer an unparalleled playing experience. The Fishman Onboard Aura system sets this guitar apart, delivering a sound so authentic and rich that it rivals the experience of a high-end studio microphone. Whether you're playing in an intimate setting or a large venue, this guitar's sound will captivate audiences.

Crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, the 000C 16RGTE produces a warm, balanced tone that resonates beautifully across all registers. Its auditorium-size 000 body ensures comfort without sacrificing sound, making it ideal for both fingerstyle and blues techniques. The solid Spanish cedar neck, joined with Martin's famous mortise-and-tenon technique, enhances the guitar's tonal integrity, offering a seamless playing experience.

With a 3-band EQ, built-in tuner, and a feedback-fighting phase switch, the 000C 16RGTE is as versatile as it is beautiful. The polished gloss top finish and white fingerboard binding add a visual elegance that matches the guitar's aural beauty. This instrument is not just a guitar; it's a piece of art that embodies Martin's commitment to quality and excellence.

Martin Guitars 000C-16RGTE AURA review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

While the Martin 000C 16RGTE impresses with its clean build and remarkably realistic plugged-in tones thanks to the Fishman Onboard Aura system, it falls short in the acoustic department. The guitar's natural sound is described as somewhat flat, lacking the sparkle and sustain that many players seek. Additionally, the fret surfaces could use refinement, and the tuners are functional but not the smoothest. Overall, this model offers great plugged-in performance but may leave traditionalists wanting more from its acoustic capabilities.
