Comfortable Playability for Effortless Performance

Whether you're strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies, the Special X Style 000's slim neck and low action make playing almost effortless.

All-Solid-Wood Construction for Resonant, Balanced Tone

The Special X Style 000 owes its full, vibrant tone to all-solid-wood construction, with a solid Jett Black HPL top, solid back and sides. It features tonewoods that produce a balanced, well-rounded acoustic voice perfect for a variety of music styles. The body is constructed with Martin's forest-friendly Jett Black HPL to give you an attractive visual look. This guitar was crafted to be a "player's dream."
