Martin 000-13E Road Series Retro Grand Concert in Spruce/Walnut in Soft Shell Case

Introducing the new 'refreshed' Road Series by Martin - these look incredible.

The Martin 000-13E Retro Walnut blends balance, warmth, and tradition in a body size that’s comfortable and versatile. The 000 body shape ensures clarity across all six strings, giving fingerpickers and singer-songwriters the nuance and separation they need, while still offering enough projection for strumming.

Its solid spruce top delivers crisp articulation and wide dynamic range, while the solid black walnut back and sides provide tonal complexity and sustain. Walnut—often called “Pennsylvania rosewood”—has a sonic profile that bridges warmth and brightness, offering rich mids, shimmering highs, and a bass response that matures and deepens over time. Scalloped X-bracing makes the top responsive, enhancing both resonance and volume.

Style 28-inspired appointments reinforce Martin’s heritage, from the visual elegance of the rosette to the clarity of the dot inlays. A Performing Artist neck with high-performance taper ensures that even intricate playing feels smooth and effortless. Vintage-style open gear tuners keep tuning stable while tying the design to Martin’s classic look. The gloss finish gives the guitar a polished, stage-worthy presence.

With versatile Martin E1 electronics, a built-in tuner, and a softshell case, the 000-13E Retro Walnut is ready for any stage of your journey. Its balance, clarity, and warmth make it equally suited for songwriting, recording, or live performance. Every detail—down to its Style 28-inspired appointments—blends heritage with modern playability. This is your road to nuanced tone, timeless style, and an instrument built to move forward with you, wherever your music leads.
