{"product_id":"000-10e-retro-sat-spr-sap-w-ss","title":"Martin 000-10E Retro OOO Acoustic-Electric Guitar","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA Real Martin That's Ready to Work\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome guitars spend their lives under glass. The Martin 000-10E Retro is not one of them. This is an all-solid-wood acoustic-electric built to be picked up every day — for a morning writing session, a coffee shop gig, or just noodling through ideas on the couch. It fits into a lot of lives without asking much in return.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 000 body size hits a sweet spot that bigger guitars can't always reach. It's focused and articulate — comfortable for fingerstyle players, responsive enough for strummers, and balanced in ways that work well in a mix. You get genuine Martin tone without needing a dreadnought strapped to your lap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \"Retro\" part of the name isn't just marketing — it shows up in the details. The satin finish, understated black binding, vintage-style open-gear tuners, and Aging Toner top give this guitar a quietly classic look that doesn't try to impress anyone. It just looks like a guitar that gets played.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAll-Solid Tonewoods, Built to Last and Improve\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 000-10E Retro is built with a solid spruce top and solid sapele back and sides — an all-solid wood construction confirmed across Martin's specifications. Solid wood matters here: it vibrates more freely than laminate, responds more dynamically to your playing, and tends to open up and improve in tone as the wood breaks in over years of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSapele shares a lot of character with traditional mahogany — warm midrange presence, a slight woodiness, and a punchy, controlled low end. Paired with a spruce top, the result is a voice that's clear and articulate without being sterile. The thin satin finish helps too, letting the wood resonate without a thick lacquer coat getting in the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScalloped X-bracing supports the top with a traditional Martin construction method that contributes to the guitar's lively, responsive feel. It's a bracing pattern that allows the top to move freely, adding to the dynamic range you get from soft fingerpicking all the way through more aggressive playing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt to Play Comfortably, Night After Night\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck here features Martin's Performing Artist (PA) Profile with a High Performance Taper — a modern shape designed for easy movement across the entire fingerboard. The 24.9\" scale length keeps string tension comfortable and forgiving, and the 1 3\/4\" nut width provides enough room for clean chord fretting without feeling wide or unwieldy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ebony fingerboard and ebony bridge add a refined feel and contribute to the guitar's crisp attack and note definition. Plek'd frets mean the setup is dialed in from the factory — accurate, even, and buzz-free from the start. The nickel open-gear tuners look the part and keep the guitar in tune reliably through long sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStage-Ready Electronics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Martin E1 electronics system is built in and ready to go. It provides a natural-sounding amplified signal — volume and tone controls plus a built-in tuner — without getting in the way of the guitar's acoustic character when you're playing unplugged. Simple, reliable, and functional for everything from a rehearsal space to a live stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're running it into a DI, an acoustic amp, or a PA, the E1 system keeps things straightforward so you can focus on playing rather than fussing with gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody size:\u003c\/strong\u003e OOO (000), 14-fret join\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid spruce, satin finish, Aging Toner color\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack \u0026amp; sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid sapele, satin finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Scalloped X-brace, spruce, 5\/16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Select hardwood, Performing Artist (PA) Profile, High Performance Taper, hand-applied satin finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24.9\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 3\/4\" (1.75\"), White TUSQ\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony, Style 28 dot inlays, 16\" radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony, Modern Belly style; White TUSQ saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nickel open-gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePickguard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Faux tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectronics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Martin E1 with built-in tuner\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandedness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Right-handed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Martin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 000-10E Retro\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1100010ERETRO\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
