Martin’s 14-fret Grand Concert size has been copied the world over, but none of them have the tone of the genuine article. Slightly smaller than the 000 yet with the same side depth and 24.9” short-scale neck, the 00 projects wonderfully well with great clarity, is oh so comfy in the lap, makes an ideal small-body Martin to go along with your powerhouse dreadnought or jumbo, and it’s a favorite of guitarists with smaller than average hands and shorter than average arms. Even the long-limbed virtuoso Steve Howe of Yes loves the 14-fret 00 size, as too does Dallas Green, Keith Urban, Damien Rice, and Garry Clark Jr.
