The 000-17 brings an all-mahogany 000 into the Standard Series: solid mahogany top, back and sides on the 000-14 fret body, satin Dark Mahogany finish, and Golden Era Scalloped X-bracing. The neck is the Golden Era (GE) Modified Low Oval with a High-Performance Taper, a 1 3/4'' nut and a 24.9" scale, shorter than the 25.4" on the 15 Series, so it frets with a little less stretch.
The trim is a multi-stripe rosette and Golden Era diamonds and squares in abalone on an ebony board, with an ebony bridge, bone nut, compensated bone saddle and bone pins. It comes with a hardshell case.
The 000-15M is the 15 Series all-mahogany 000, with non-scalloped bracing and a 1 11/16'' nut. For a spruce top over mahogany, look at the 000-18, and for the dreadnought, the D-17.
