Martin Grand J-16E 12-string Acoustic-electric Guitar - Natural Reviews
The Martin Grand J-16E 12-string acoustic-electric guitar combines the wide-open sound of Martin’s Jumbo body shape with the inimitable sparkly jangle of a 12-string. Featuring a gorgeous Sitka spruce top and East Indian rosewood back and sides, the Grand J-16E has a deep, warm character and serious projection; plus, a shallower 000 depth facilitates enhanced comfort and a more controlled low-end response. Country, classic rock, and folk players will enjoy the Grand J-16E for filling out a sparse live arrangement, and it includes Fishman Matrix VT Enhance NTC electronics for stellar plugged-in sound. Plus, it’s a go-to instrument for engineers at Sweetwater who look to add depth and texture to a recording.

Sounds as sweet as it plays
Everything I expected and more. The action out of the box was just perfect; hats off to the Sweetwater team. It plays as easily as a six string and the sound is rich and full with the classic chime of a twelve. Great guitar.
Amazing guitar
This is the first 12 string that I've owned. I've played other 12 strings and have always enjoyed the sound that they produce. This instrument is no different! It is far easier to play than I imagined that it would be. The 000 depth also makes it easier to play and there is no compromise in overall sound. The build quality is what you'd expect from Martin and the guitar is beautiful to look at when not in use.
I am very pleased with this purchase. I may have to upgrade my six string now!
