Martin D-15M - USA 2014

The 2014 Martin D-15M is part of the esteemed Martin 15 Series, which is known for offering a blend of traditional craftsmanship, simple elegance, and exceptional tonal quality at a more accessible price point. The D-15M is a dreadnought-sized model that provides a deep, rich sound with impressive projection and sustain. This model offers the classic Martin experience with the added warmth and complexity that comes from the all-mahogany construction. With a solid mahogany top, back, and sides, the D-15M delivers a mellow, focused tone with a strong midrange presence, making it ideal for a variety of genres, from folk to blues to rock.

The features of the D-15M include a solid mahogany body, which contributes to its warm, balanced sound, and a solid mahogany neck with a traditional dreadnought body shape. The fingerboard is crafted from solid East Indian rosewood, providing smooth playability and a pleasant feel under the fingers. The guitar is built with Martin's time-honoured X-bracing pattern, which helps maintain structural integrity while allowing the guitar to resonate with a natural and well-balanced tone. The D-15M also features a vintage-style satin finish, giving it a classic, understated look that highlights the beautiful grain of the mahogany.

In great condition, the 2014 Martin D-15M shows some minor blemishes, typical of a well-loved instrument, but these do not affect its overall performance or sound. There are a few small cosmetic marks, but nothing significant, and the guitar plays beautifully.
