Rosewood and spruce deliver timeless acoustic tone
The tone of solid spruce and genuine rosewood has become something of a legend in the world of acoustic instruments. The Martin 000-42 proudly features this classic pairing that results in its exquisite sound. Crisp, clear highs blend wonderfully with the warm low end, producing stellar sustain and robust projection. And the beautiful ebony fingerboard feels immediately playable and delivers a great dynamic feel.
Enjoy the comfortable and tonally balanced body
The forward, balanced tone of this Martin 000-42 acoustic guitar comes from its 000 14-fret body style. It provides excellent projection and focus, perfect for competing with a banjo or other acoustic instruments in a performance. The body style also gives you well-balanced tone, making this 000-42 perfect for recording in the studio.
Modified low oval neck combines vintage style with smooth feel
For players with smaller hands or those who simply prefer a slimmer neck, the 000-42 features a modified low oval neck, great for fingerpicking or flatpicking in various styles — bluegrass, country, blues, even folk. The low oval neck, paired with the ebony fingerboard, adds even more playability and smooth response to this beautifully crafted acoustic.
