The 16 and 17 Series Lineup

THE 16 AND 17 SERIES | Martin 16 and 17 Series guitars are handcrafted in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, with the same dedication and expertise as our higher-end instruments, but at an even more accessible price. The 16 Series now combines classic tonewoods like spruce, mahogany, and East Indian rosewood with a satin finish and new Martin E1 electronics, while its unique 000 depth provides unparalleled comfort. 17 Series guitars are inspired by vintage guitars from the '30s and '40s, pairing mahogany backs and sides with spruce tops for a bright, balanced sound. The 17 Series also stands out with bold, eye-catching shade patterns and appointments. Whether you’re writing your next hit or performing on stage, these guitars offer legendary Martin quality at an incredible value.
