Martin 00L-16E 1935 16-Series 00-14 Slope Shoulder Acoustic Guitar (Burst)

The Martin 00L-16E 1935 brings vintage-inspired tone and striking aesthetics to the refreshed 16 Series, combining a gloss spruce top finished in 1935 Burst with solid mahogany back and sides for punchy midrange, strong treble response, and controlled lows that sit comfortably in a mix. The sloped-shoulder 00-14 fret body size delivers a woody, responsive voice across fingerstyle, songwriting, and rhythm work, offering surprising projection from a compact frame. This limited-edition model arrives strung with Martin Era Legacy Edition strings developed specifically for the 16 Series relaunch. Scalloped X-bracing enhances sustain and resonance throughout the 24.9" scale length, with a modified low oval neck in select hardwood meeting an ebony fingerboard at a 1 3/4" nut width. Twenty frets total provide ample range, while 1955 Style 18 inlays add period-correct detail. L.R. Baggs Element electronics handle amplification and recording duties, running through an ebony bridge with bone saddle. Nickel open-gear tuning machines and a faux tortoise pickguard complete the vintage aesthetic, with satin mahogany back, sides, and neck contrasting against the gloss burst top.
