I love the sounds of the 00 and 000 body types. I have a 000 (Santa Cruz, not Martin). I typically use my Larrivee Jumbo for performance. The 000 sounds good plugged in, or mic'ed - but it sounds best in a quiet room. I suspect it sounds best to the player. When your on-stage, I think you need a guitar that is meant for that environment, volume, balance, good electronics - when you're sitting in your living room playing you can take you pick!
