AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
40/SS-D17
The Martin D-17 reimagines the dreadnought tradition with a warm, vintage voice driven by an all-mahogany construction. With solid mahogany used for the top, back, and sides, this guitar produces a woody, articulate tone with a focused midrange and naturally compressed dynamics—perfect for fingerstyle playing or punchy, dry flatpicking. Forward-shifted X-bracing adds openness and projection, giving the D-17 a bold voice while retaining its signature warmth and clarity.
A GE Modified Low Oval neck with a high-performance taper ensures fast, comfortable fretting, while the ebony fingerboard and 1.75" nut width support smooth playability across all styles. Vintage appointments like diamond and square short inlays, a faux tortoiseshell pickguard, and nickel open-gear tuners complete the classic aesthetic. Whether you're in the studio, on stage, or at home, the Martin D-17 delivers rich tone and timeless craftsmanship.
