Martin 00L-16E Acoustic Electric Guitar - Black Smoke

The 2026 Martin 00L-16E Black Smoke offers a distinctive blend of compact comfort, focused acoustic tone and modern style. Its sloped-shoulder 00L body produces a warm, woody voice with punchy mids, clear treble and a surprisingly strong projection for its size. The solid mahogany back and sides give the guitar a balanced, controlled low end, making it especially well suited to fingerstyle playing, songwriting and expressive rhythm work. A gloss Black Smoke top creates a bold visual contrast with the understated natural tones of the body, while the grained ivoroid pickguard and traditional Martin details add character. Scalloped X-bracing helps bring out the guitar’s resonance and dynamic response, and L.R. Baggs Element electronics make it ready for the stage or studio. Comfortable and responsive, the 00L-16E is an appealing option for players who want a smaller-bodied Martin with a distinctive look and a voice of its own.
