Visited City music yesterday and picked up and tried the D-15M streetmaster and was blown away by its intonation and resonance. I played a note and the sound reverberated thru the all wood mahagony and was going on and on. Full rounded sound but no electronics. Mike it up and record it in studio. Did not care to look at other offerings of Martin. This was the sound I pleasantly fell in love when I heard it.

[@baldbearded9601]

I just bought a D-15M for myself. This video is the representation of the sound one can get out of a D-15. Love mine. I played a few d-28 and D-35 before I decided on and bought the D-15. Just love the tone.

Hey Jonathan, I was the guy that messaged about the Yamaha fsx5 vs 000-15. Just wanted to let you know I ended up getting a streetmaster dss , funny enough I find you have one too haha! I wanted to share a bit of my story to you if you want to read it. The streetmaster is a very close guitar to my heart and I knew that before I got serious about buying one of these. Sparing you the details, a few years back (2019 april) I got out of the hospital for self harm/suicidal ideation and couldn't have my guitars in the hospital due to the chance of harming myself. This alone made me realize how much I wanted out , and to get better. I got out and all I wanted was to play again so we went straight to Sam ash and my mom actually picked the streetmaster out for how gorgeous it was. Not looking at price at all, I promised I'd own it one day to have a piece of that day and remember my struggles in the past, as well as to remeber how important guitar and music and God has been in my survival and mental health , and quite frankly how funny my mom is to say all other guitars look boring compared to this one (not a fan of natural spruce). Thank you so much for your reviews, they have helped me and countless others make decisions and they pick you up on the bad days, subscriber for life here . Thanks as well if you or anyone else is reading, I'm pretty heavy hearted and overwhelmed with happiness and joy tonight, just wanted to spread some positivity. :)

These guitars sound fantastic and I think due to the lighter finish sound more alive that the plain 15M's....I love the tone of all mahogany, my 2020 000-15M Streetmaster came with an arch top hardshell case.

Jon! Love to see you playing an acoustic in one of the these episodes. I love my Martin, and I think the Streetmaster series has great tone and usability. Listening to your intro, it made me wonder if you have maybe done some worship gigs/sessions - because it very much had that vibe. Just beautiful. I got the impression that that song is an old friend. 🙂👍 P.S. my Martin is a '67 00-18, and I have to say I love the neck profile 😊😉

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Oh wow... that ole guitar of yours must sound heavenly! And yes..I do worship sessions before...I love to worship the King of kings :)

[@MattyK-USA]

@@JonIsJustTooLoud It is a player's guitar, re-fret, re-bridge, re-nut, neck re-fit, I guess re-everything. But the old wood, it can't be denied. Just beautiful tone and a cannon when I need it to be. BTW, my father was choir director as I grew up, so yeah, all of that too. :)

@@JonIsJustTooLoud congratulations is a real beauty, I’m considering buying one but it worries me the fact that is coming without pick guard, and I like strumming a lot, . Does the guitar comes with pick guard to install it if you want ? Are you planning to put pick guard to avoid damage the finish ?? Thanks

[@septemberwalk]

love this demo, im considering this guitar but im into a more beautiful and warm style of playing which you definitely demonstrated here. Most of the demos play country and blues which im not really into. i want something really "woody", warm, detailed and resonant. This seems like a good choice

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you ✌💚

[@michaelaiello9525]

Jon I have been looking at this model as well as the DSS-15M, so the algorithm popped you up today. First off, you are a real treat and evidently a true gentleman as well as a fine player. Thanks for the heartfelt review. You bought one.. so that says a lot. I currently have a 000-15SM. That is a fantastic sounding guitar; however, it’s both a 12 fret and the nut is 1 3/4” with a saddle spacing at 2 1/4”… (the D-15M has a 2 1/8” saddle) so a few more frets and a narrower fretboard seems appealing to me. I can’t get my thumb over even on my Telecaster as convincingly as you do, but on the D-15M it ought to be a bit more accessible. Here’s two questions. Are you familiar with my current guitar for comparison (000-15SM)? Did you compare yours to the DSS-15M? I really like your experience and consideration; if you have any feedback comparing your model with these two others I’d love to hear what you think. Thanks!!

Nice I not sure if you ever heard of EKO brand I have a 1965 J54 Dreadnaught , it was a poor man's Martin back the n , it still sounds good , but that's a lovely acoustic

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

yep!! I heard of EKO guitars way back!! :)

[@DenisAhmet]

Canadian in the UK I still have an EKO dreadnaught, purchased in the late seventies. I must have written over 100 songs with it - they are great value. I now have a Tanglewood Sundance as my songwriting tool. The overtones/playability are the best I’ve ever heard. It just gets better with age. One day I will buy a nice Martin, probably when I retire in 7 years time, I’d like a smaller body so that it’s more comfortable to play, just like Jonathan’s one in this video, but without the distressed look. I may get a Taylor too for their reputation of being easy to play in the hand.

[@bluesman7119]

@@DenisAhmet The Eko is a big tank but still very solid , it has this wonderful tone , I picked it up from a second hand shop a few years ago for £15 pounds I had new strings placed , you will not purchase a guitar like this for that amount of money, it's worth much more than £15, the second shop had no idea of what it was or it's true value, I would ask you a question Denis what strings have you placed on your Eko,

[@bodijisattva9333]

Jonathan, Thanks for sharing your "Street Master" I've been looking at purchasing one they look beautiful to me. I've played a couple of them. Your's by far sounds the best. Did you sort through a few of these Martain D-15s until you found one you like? My experience with the Sm's they don't have that chime or sustain, The ones I've played felt dry, stiff, "Not Open" Something seems to be missing for an all solid mahogany wood Martin guitar. Any thoughts?

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Lol.. I chose this one because it was the show room piece. It’s been played often enough so the sound is more open compared to a brand new piece

Hi Jon, thanks for sharing this. I really appreciate your lovely playing and presentations. ❤ Your music is just beautiful and touching. It's crazy how the prices went up since you made this video. Nowadays this guitar is around 1.899€. But anyway..that's the game 🙂 I'm just wondering if you still own and play this Streetmaster despite having a D-35 at home? I was thinking about selling my Martin 00-15M to afford sth. like a D-28/35..

In fact, I like your unbiased coverage of all that guitarists are willing to spend a fortune on. But why do I ask myself, do you play in a room that is even smaller than my bathroom?

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

[@ravenslaves]

What I wondered after playing one of these is if Martin did anything else to this model other than just "relic" it. I've played plenty of Martins, I especially enjoy the mahogany ones, but this model just seems to have something "extra" in the tone so that it _sounds_ like an old mahogany guitar. It's not any visual cue because I really hate "reliced" (sic) guitars, and I didn't want to like Martins new marketing -scam- strategy. But I ended up being very impressed with the feel and especially the sound. ...even if the looks annoyed me more than a Daisy Rock guitar.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

I know what you mean...it kinda surprised to me to hear it the 1st time I played it...What they did...they did it right!

[@johngeddes7894]

Not necessarily bro

[@BadChizzle]

I don’t think a mahogany top usually sounds that crisp. That says things to me regarding the thought that went in to this one. Was very surprised by the highs. Anyway... it’s kind of a thing we all know about writing... that the best tool for it is an acoustic, if we are a Guitarist. Have started having mine out more often... so it’s just easier to grab and mess around on.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Yep.. Fact is having a guitar as a writing tool is so portable... You can actually bring to anywhere for inspirations 🤓✌️

[@BadChizzle]

Jonathan Koh I was speaking more along the lines of the acoustic Guitar and all it’s aspects of how you need to approach them being more conducive to writing than say... an electric.
