Martin Road Series 000-12E Koa Auditorium Acoustic Electric Guitar
At Guitar Paradise we have a great range of Martin acoustic guitars, available both instore and online through our webstore!
With the 000-12E Koa in Martin’s lineup, now more players can turn their dreams of owning a koa guitar into reality. The back and sides of this gorgeous model are constructed with koa fine veneer, which is an environmentally conscious, alternative-wood option, made by bonding koa hardwood to an African mahogany core. The result is the show-stopping look of a koa guitar at a great price. But there is so much more to this guitar. Aside from the balance and comfort of the 000, you will get mother-of-pearl-patterned rosette and fingerboard inlay, a gloss body, a softshell case, Martin E1 electronics, and Martin’s Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 strings. With all that, the 000-12E Koa is worthy of any stage.
