Martin 000-10E Road Series Retro Concert in Spruce/Sapele in Soft Shell Case

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

The Martin 000-10E Retro is a time-tested tool that delivers balance, clarity, and Martin heritage in a streamlined package. Its 000 body size makes it versatile enough for strumming, fingerpicking, or songwriting, while its understated design gives it a stripped-down, vintage-inspired look.

Built with a solid spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, this guitar emphasizes punchy mids, crisp trebles, and a balanced tone across all six strings. Sapele is often compared to mahogany, offering similar warmth and projection, but with a slightly brighter treble response and a lighter brown appearance. The spruce top adds projection and articulation, ensuring the guitar performs equally well in the studio or on stage. Scalloped X-bracing further enhances responsiveness and dynamic range.

The satin finish and black binding give the guitar a subtle nod to vintage Martins, while vintage-style open gear tuners add both function and character. The Performing Artist neck with high-performance taper ensures smooth, modern playability, making this a guitar that feels as comfortable in your hands as it sounds to your ears.

With Martin E1 electronics, a built-in tuner, and a softshell case, the 000-10E Retro is always ready for the next step in your musical journey. Its clear, balanced tone works across styles, while vintage-inspired details bring timeless character. Whether you’re starting your first lessons or recording your next track, this model is built to guide you forward. This is your road to authentic Martin sound—dependable, versatile, and always ready to perform.
