DESCRIPTION:
My thing for small-bodied mahogany guitars continues (see my other videos for Guild M120 and GS Mini in mahogany).

This time it's the CF Martin Custom Edition 0-15 Style VIII.

This is the only 0-size Martin available retail in the UK: the other options are vintage or import (Ted at LA Guitar Sales does a pretty roaring trade in 0-size Martins, but it's a bit far away!)

It has the same, simple appointments, or lack thereof, as my D-15. Unbound mahogany body, vintage tuners, bone nut and saddle. The 24.9" / 1.75" neck is really comfortable and, combined with the smaller body shape, makes it such a fun guitar to play.

It's also ideal for singing with, as you can use the full dynamic range of the guitar without it overpowering like a dread sometimes can. It also tracks beautifully, sitting pretty much effortlessly in a mix.

As you can tell, I'm very pleased with it :)
