From Elizabeth Cotten’s Country Blues picking to your own brand of fingerstyle, this 2001 00-18CTN from Martin Guitars is guaranteed to liven up the room with its strong, crisp voice cutting through the air. With a slim 1 11/16″ nut and 00-size body, this guitar is easy, both on the hands and the ear. The bass strings have a well-defined edge that’s balanced with the other registers, and the punchy tone of the Mahogany back and sides is powerfully amplified by the Sitka Spruce top. With Elizabeth Cotten’s signature sharing space with a gorgous MOP train at the 12th fret, this guitar pays subtle homage to the model Country Blues singer for which this guitar is named, and is in practically mint condition. Wrapped up in a Martin TKL hardshell case to transport the 00-18CTN to the gig, this 00 has is included with a Fishman Thinline Natural I pickup to get you through the set with nothing but faithful amplification and zero feedback.
The smaller body is both comfortable and gives the guitar an increased articulation across the strings. Like Al says, this is an excellent guitar for a Blues player, but it can handle pretty much any genre with style. Dropped D, especially, sounded rich but focused. 
This guitar is great for Fingerstyle blues and Old Time music. The neck is narrower than the standard width these days, but it's really comfortable to play. | Scale Length | 24.88 in |
