Discover the powerful voice and timeless craftsmanship of the Martin D-17 Standard Series Acoustic Guitar – Natural, now available at Irvine Art and Music, Orange County’s trusted destination for quality musical instruments and expert service.

The Martin D-17 blends the bold projection of a classic dreadnought body with the rich, resonant warmth of an all-solid mahogany construction. This acoustic guitar is part of Martin’s legendary Standard Series, featuring the company’s iconic Golden Era forward-shifted X-bracing for enhanced resonance and a more open, dynamic tone.

Unlike traditional spruce-topped models, the D-17’s solid mahogany top, back, and sides deliver a focused, earthy sound with punchy midrange and a naturally compressed character ideal for recording artists, singer-songwriters, and live performers seeking vintage warmth with modern playability.

Designed for serious guitarists, this model features a select hardwood neck with a Modified Low Oval profile, a 1.75-inch nut width, and beveled edges on the smooth ebony fingerboard providing fast, comfortable action whether you’re fingerpicking, flatpicking, or strumming chords. Vintage-style nickel open-gear tuners, a bone nut and saddle, and Golden Era diamond and square fretboard inlays complete the look with classic Martin elegance.
