Martin / 1992 model 0-16NY
The roots of the "0-16NY" lie in 19th-century models such as the "Style 17," which Martin manufactured for its New York distributor in the late 1800s.
In the 1960s, amidst the modern folk boom that swept America, artists like Joan Baez favored this classic small guitar.
In response to this, the "0-16NY" was revived in 1961 with the concept of "reviving the good old style of the 19th century for the modern era (at the time)."
- Recreation of 9th-century details

Single O-size, 12-fret joint, slotted headstock, satin finish, and rectangular bridge.
Its instantly recognizable classical appearance exudes a "simple and organic beauty" that is absent in modern guitars.


Despite its compact appearance, it boasts a rich, warm, and somewhat melancholic tone that is truly captivating.
Its small size and comfortable design make it the perfect companion for relaxing at home or practicing fingerpicking.
