Versatility. This is a key attribute for every instrument manufacturer in existence. They'll all say that their guitars can give you a better tonal range or wider reaching sound than any of the others on the market. The difference with the Martin 000RS1 is that when you say it produces amazing acoustic tone superior to anything out there, it really is true.
Martin are the masters of crafting brilliant acoustic guitars. And so they should be - they've been doing it for almost 200 years. So they know more than a thing or two about what makes a guitar sound wonderful. With the 000RS1, they've set out to create an instrument that gives you incredible tone at any pitch.
They have, of course, succeeded. Rare sapele wood used in the construction of the guitar's body is a premium tonewood that provides an excellent dynamic range. You'll enjoy brilliant, booming depth when playing at the low-end. Your high notes will be delivered with unparalleled brightness thanks to the wood's extremely high density. All of these tones are beautifully balanced, too. Sitka spruce X-bracing ensures that everything is communicated with full voice and rich clarity. This is tone that conquers all.
Crystal-clear amplified sound
An electronic system that retains your natural acoustic warmth and resonance. The Martin 000RS1 comes fitted with a superb Fishman Sonitone preamp that delivers everything you play with industry-leading clarity.
Many electro acoustic pickup systems fail to provide authentic acoustic sound when playing at high volume. This is not a problem you'll ever have with the 000RS1. The Sonitone's active electronic pickup system is designed to communicate your guitar's exact voice at high output. This makes the guitar superb for live performance in larger venues. It's an instrument that'll never make you sacrifice warmth or fidelity.
Superbly playable
A playing experience that feels as natural as the gorgeous sound this guitar produces. The Left Handed Martin 000RS1 will instantly feel at home when you've got it in your hands. The select hardwood neck features Martin's High Performance Taper, providing you with a comfortable, entirely enjoyable playing action. This incredible development means the neck's shape changes as your hand moves up and down the scale, always ensuring that your frethand is positioned naturally. It'll fit so well in your hands, you'll forget you're even holding a guitar. Let the music flow effortlessly from your fingertips.
The perfectly balanced body
The Martin 000RS1's magnificent playability and versatile sound is assured by its auditorium body shape. This style of body was pioneered by Martin. It offers the comfortable profile of smaller parlour guitars, while maintaining the fantastic resonance and fullness in tone synonymous with large dreadnought acoustics. This amalgamation of two fantastic qualities make the 000RS1 the ideal instrument for anyone looking for a superb, all-round guitar.
Complete protection
This is a guitar of the very highest calibre. You need to make sure it's protected. Fortunately, Martin include an extremely strong hardshell case at no extra cost. This will give you peace of mind when you're transporting your instrument, leaving you safe in the knowledge that your 000RS1 is secure from bumps and scrapes. Maintain maximum quality for as long as possible.
