Martin OO-10E Retro Joe Bonamassa 1937 Sunburst OO Guitar w/Martin Pickup #1325

The Martin 00-10E Retro Joe Bonamassa brings the look and soul of Joe's prized pre-war 1937 00-18 to a more accessible Road Series Retro platform. This exceptional instrument captures the true character of a well-loved vintage guitar while offering modern, road-ready reliability. The solid spruce top features a custom sunburst that meticulously replicates the exact visual wear found on Joe's original instrument. Visually classic and unpretentious, the body features a faux tortoise pickguard that keeps the overall aesthetic rooted in pre-war Martin tradition.

Where this 00 truly excels is in its punchy acoustic voice and plug-and-play versatility. Paired with solid sapele back and sides, the comfortable 00 body size yields a warm bass, a punchy midrange, and clear trebles that are absolutely ideal for blues, folk, and fingerstyle playing. Underneath the satin finish, scalloped spruce X-bracing enhances the guitar's resonance and sustain. This allows the spruce top to respond immediately to a player's attack, ensuring single-note blues lines cut through cleanly. Equipped with onboard Martin E1 electronics and a built-in tuner, this Road Series tribute is fully prepared for live performance or recording the moment you plug it in.

In the hands, this guitar feels familiar, reliable, and exceptionally playable. The select hardwood neck is carved into a comfortable PA Profile with a smooth satin finish, providing a fast, effortless feel up and down the ebony fingerboard. Old Style 18 fretboard inlays keep the fingerboard looking classic, while a 1 3/4-inch nut width provides perfect string spacing for clean articulation. Premium nickel open-gear tuners ensure excellent tuning stability while maintaining a traditional look. Complete with a softshell case, the Martin 00-10E Retro Joe Bonamassa is a performance-ready workhorse built for players chasing vintage character without the vintage price tag.
