Folkway Music - 1934 Martin 0-17

Описание: www.folkwaymusic.com
1934 was something of a magical year for the instruments being constructed in Nazareth. It seems that Martin and Co. had really hit their stride in building steel-string guitars that year; and to many, the instruments built in ’34 represent the apex in all things acoustic guitar. From the neck carve to the scalloping of the braces, 1934 was a year that brought all the best together in Martin’s instruments.

With its lightweight all-mahogany body, thin maple bridge plate and carefully scalloped braces, this 0-17 has a full and deep dry voice with enough of a push in the midrange to keep any ragtime picker happy, but plenty of warmth and openness across the strings to satiate a melodic single-note picker. It offers that ‘piano-like’ cavernous articulation in the bass-end, and a sweet and well-rounded treble.
