Perfect for fingerstyle players
The crossover neck makes transitioning from steel string so much easier. The tone is warm and the solid top really opens up after a few weeks of playing.

Great amplified sound
I bought this specifically for live performances. The MSCC pickup system captures the nuance of nylon strings without too much feedback. Highly recommended for gigging musicians.

Beautiful craftsmanship
The rosewood back and sides are stunning visually. The build quality feels premium, and the action was set perfectly right out of the box.

My new daily driver
I've owned several high-end guitars, but this Martinez has become my go-to for practice and recording. The balance between bass and treble is exceptional.

Comfortable playability
The narrower nut width compared to traditional classical guitars fits my smaller hands perfectly. Great for complex chord shapes and fast runs.

Excellent value for all-solid wood
Finding an all-solid classical guitar at this price point with a cutaway and electronics is rare. It punches way above its weight class in terms of volume and sustain.
Q: Can I use steel strings on this crossover model?
A: No, please do not use steel strings. This guitar is designed specifically for nylon strings, and steel strings could damage the bridge and neck due to higher tension.
Q: What type of battery does the MSCC pickup system require?
A: The onboard preamp system utilizes a standard 9V battery, which is easily accessible through the soundhole compartment.
Q: Does this model have a cutaway for upper fret access?
A: Yes, the MP14 features a Venetian cutaway body shape, allowing comfortable access to the higher frets for soloing and advanced fingerstyle arrangements.
Q: Is the neck profile suitable for someone used to electric guitars?
A: Yes, the 'Crossover' design features a slimmer neck profile and slightly narrower nut width compared to traditional classical guitars, making it very friendly for electric guitar players.
Q: Does this guitar come with a hard case or a gig bag?
A: The Martinez MP14 comes included with a premium hardshell case to ensure maximum protection during transport.
