Martin's popular StreetMaster® finish was introduced into their
solid mahogany 15 Series in 2017 as a respectful nod to the
working musician. Now Martin has applied this beautifully
distressed finish to East Indian rosewood and Adirondack spruce
for the first time, and it is a fine addition to our 16 Series.
The Adirondack spruce top also includes our proprietary VINTAGE
TONE SYSTEM® (VTS), which ages the wood for a truly vintage tone
that you’d normally have to wait many decades to enjoy. If you
love the look of the StreetMaster finish but want the bigger and
bassier sound you get from highly coveted East Indian rosewood
and Adirondack spruce, this guitar was made for you. Whether your
next gig is at the historic Ryman Auditorium or a day of busking
in the big city, the StreetMaster gives you the look and feel of
a well-worn instrument, with a limited lifetime warranty and the
superb playability of a new guitar. This model comes with a
soft-shell case, making it easy to take it to the streets!
