New for 2025 is a left-handed model we’ve been hoping for for the past 25 years. The lefty 000-17 is finally here, and it’s as exciting as we were anticipating. The 000-17 is a model that has never existed as part of the company’s standard series until now. Imagine an unbound 000-18 with a mahogany top and satin finish and you’ve got it figured out. It’s quite different from the company’s lefty 000-15m in that the 17 has a hand-fit dovetailed neck joint, Golden Era scalloped and forward shifted X bracing, a 24.9” scale, 1-3/4” nut width, and ebony fretboard and bridge. It’s a lot more guitar, and the differences are immediately apparent. We suspect that this model will go on to become one of the company’s best-selling guitars. It sounds incredible, it’s attractive and well made, its playability is top-notch, it’s left-handed, and the price-point is positioned perfectly at the base of the standard series price list.

The guitar’s neck features a GE-Modified low oval carve for a comfortably rounded feel, an angle-bottomed lefty nut, old-style logo, and open geared tuners. String spread at the saddle is 2-5/32”. The lefty-compensated saddle, nut, and pins are bone, and the bevelled-edge pickguard is cut from tortoise celluloid and polished to a high gloss.

The all-mahogany construction with forward-shifted scalloped left-handed bracing offers a dry, woody and open tone with a touch of sparkle up top and beautifully supported mid-range. Flatpickers and fingerstylists alike will love what the new left-handed Martin 000-17 has to offer.

With hardshell case.
