Goncalo alves topped with Sitka spruce delivers a powerful, balanced tone
Built from solid goncalo alves and topped with solid Sitka spruce, the Martin LE-Cowboy-2015 not only sports a visually arresting appearance, it also delivers a powerful, balanced tone with incredible projection. Goncalo alves, also known as tigerwood, is coveted for its attractive, honey-tan color with dramatic reddish-brown shapes. Goncalo alves sounds similar to mahogany, delivering crisp, delicate highs and excellent sustain, along with tonal characteristics you'd normally find with expensive tropical woods.
Comfortable Auditorium body style
The forward, balanced tone of the Martin LE-Cowboy-2015 acoustic guitar comes from its Auditorium body style. This body style provides excellent projection and focus, perfect for competing with a banjo (which was a common combination in the '30s). The Auditorium body style also gives you well-balanced tone, making the LE-Cowboy-2015 perfect for recording in your studio.
Low-oval neck profile feels incredibly smooth
Whether you need to survive long recording sessions or plan to play out late into the night, you'll be glad you got a Martin LE-Cowboy-2015 acoustic guitar. The LE-Cowboy-2015 features one of Martin's amazing modified low-oval neck profiles, which gives you enough girth to hold onto while still allowing you to play faster lines unhindered.
Vintage Tone System (VTS) for aged appearance and tonality
Martin's unique torrefaction process, called Vintage Tone System (VTS), allows their guitar builders to age the tops and bracing of their instruments to specific time periods, bringing out the character that an instrument from that year would likely possess. On top of that, Martin's Vintage Gloss Finish (which is applied by hand) also adds the warm glow appearance that you'd expect from a vintage acoustic guitar. In short, Martin's VTS provides you with the historic tones and visual aesthetics that were previously reserved for vintage instruments.
