I’m in a very similar situation as the OP; I’ve been looking at the all Sapele 00010e, but if I could stretch my budget at all, it’s really the 00015m Streetmaster that I’m pining away for. Need...more...money.

But, I’m sure that $1,300 is burning a hole in your pocket and you’re determined to spend it. I always wanted a 000-15. I like the look and the new models give you a variety of different looks. The slotted headstock is pretty cool. So I’d agree with several other rec’s on the 000-15.

Concerning the 16 series: my 2000 D-16GT fretboard and bridge are NOT Richlite. Fretboard and bridge are rosewood. Back and side are solid mahogany Typical of that year. When Martin changed fretboard is unknown to me but by 2010 Richlite was the norm.

Ditto. Love this guitar. And there’s surprisingly nothing really like it, especially at that price. Play it, if you love it, you’re done looking. If not, get something with a spruce top. (If you can stretch your budget just 100-200$ you could get a used 000-18. Not necessarily “better, but a high value spruce top Martin).

I just recently bought my 00015SM from Sweetwater for $1300.00 total and that included a humidipak system. Nice thing is you can compare up to 4 on their site and pick the one you like most. I actually called them and told them I was looking for one with the least striping. They gave me a serial number for one that wasn’t displayed. I punched the # into their search bar while I was on the phone with them and instantly bought it. Maybe i’m just fortunate but I can’t imagine finding a better one. Just my 2 cents.
