C. F. Martin introduced four new acoustic guitar models featuring Fishman's onboard Aura Sound Reinforcement System. The
Aura harnesses the power of Fishman's proprietary acoustic
imaging technology -- building it right into your instrument.
The onboard Aura features six customized Aura Acoustic
Sound Images specially created for and by Martin. These
images can be blended with the Martin Gold+Plus under-the-saddle pickup signal for unequaled studio quality
acoustic sound reproduction. The six presets are derived
from model specific studio recordings played into a
variety of high-end microphones. Other onboard Aura
features include digital and fully programmable equalization,
feedback control, and chromatic tuning.
The new model offerings include the Dreadnought
cutaway DC-16RE Aura, the Orchestra Model cutaway
OMC-16RE Aura, the Dreadnought cutaway DC-16RGTE
Aura Gloss Top, and the Grand Concert cutaway 000C-16RGTE Aura Gloss Top. All four models feature solid East
Indian rosewood back and sides, prized for tonal warmth
and power, plus solid bookmatched spruce soundboards.
The "GT" Gloss Top models feature satin lacquered sides,
back and neck, while the "RE" models feature polished gloss
bodies, satin necks, single-banded pearl rosettes and white
body and fingerboard bindings.
