You will be shock at how loud some of these small bodies are. I had a 00-18V and a 0-16NY, the 00 was just amazing. You couldn't get a more comfortable couch guitar as well. Try one, you will be amaze.

I don't know that sizes 0 and 00 are odd. Maybe a size 3 1/2 is odd.
I'm building a size 5 now. This is how it compares to a dreadnaught. [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] |

I have come to the point where I really enjoy 00s.
I have a 20 year old 00-15. A Plain Jane that gets it done and then some. Most of the time I don't need the volume of the dread. I compared the 00 to the triple 0. Pretty close. Then there is that certain intimacy that comes with a 00 size. Some day I will get a 00-18. I really like the 00 size. A great partner for singing. |

Oh that is understandable, you can get confuse if you are not familiar with so many diff. sizes. I read you purchased a OM recently, well the 00 is a fraction smaller.

Little guitars may not be you're cup of tea, but you should play one, or two, or three. They might surprise you. I love 'em now. Stumming or picking. |

just to throw in a non-Martin example ... my little Alvarez AP66 is classified as a parlor guitar, but it is almost exactly the dimensions of a 00, (but in looking at that chart, its shape is more like the Size 1); there are a few videos out there and quite a number of AGF fans of those ... love that little guitar!

0 And 00 Martins
I purchased a 00-18Authentic about 6 months ago and I have to say that ounce per ounce it is one of the best guitars I have ever played. I also have a 2010 0-28VS that is outstanding as well. I'm obviously hooked on small bodied Martins.

0 and 00 Martins
Walked into Sam Ash in NYC last year, and saw a new 2018 Martin 00-28 on the wall.
“Ooh, I’ve never tried one of THESE!”. Within 15 minutes I was walking out with it. My most comfortable guitar. |

My '67 nylon 00-28C is my most recent acquisition, and is a joy to play. It invites an intimacy in approach and touch that my larger guitars do not, even more so than my like sized Bashkin 00. I'm considering an 0 or 00 for my TBD Michaud build...

That's the Japanese built Shenandoah series guitars.
I know of at least a couple of custom Nazareth made Martins with a similar but different body style. The Shenandoah has a pointier cutaway profile and the waist is much higher (closer to the neck) than the custom Martins which have a far more graceful profile. And, not an oval/elliptical sound hole.
