Martin D-16E Acoustic Guitar
Catalogue No: igMAR-D16E-02
With a solid sitka spruce top, and solid mahogany back and sides, this Martin has all the craftsmanship that you'd expect from Martin. A few small constructional details keep the price below that of a D18 but it has that classic Martin Dreadnought boom in spades.
What they say
The traditional D-16 acoustic guitar features a 14-fret platform and a Dreadnought body design which incorporates modern guitar specifications with the famous Martin quality and sound. The solid mahogany back and sides complement the Sitka spruce top finished in satin. The D-16 delivers true Martin sound and feel.
