What Haworth Guitars say:
The Martin 000-42 Standard Series Auditorium Acoustic Guitar is a beautiful American-made acoustic guitar model by Martin Guitars.
At Haworth Guitars we love this Martin 00042 Acoustic Guitar's made-in-USA quality craftsmanship, tight 000-14 fret body size, comfortable Modified Low Oval neck, the bright-sounding solid Sitka spruce top with solid East Indian rosewood back and sides as well as the ebony fretboard and bridge.
Here is what Martin Guitars say:
Rich resonant tone and balance with a stand out elegance.
The ornate design and flash of the 42 Series add panache to the classic tone of East Indian rosewood back and sides, a Sitka spruce scalloped X-braced top, and hand-fit dovetail neck joint. Open geared tuners, antique white binding, polished gloss finish and abalone pearl top inlay offers exquisite style with complex tone. Short scale and a sleek modified low-oval neck with narrow taper mean strumming and picking for hours in comfort and bliss.
