Martin Joe Bonamassa Road 00-10E Retro - 1937 joe bonamassa sunburst

The MARTIN Road Series Joe Bonamassa 00-10E Retro is an electro-acoustic steel-string acoustic guitar inspired by the famous 1937 00-18, a model prized by the iconic blues-rock artist. This instrument is designed for those seeking warm, delicate vintage tones—perfect for blues or Americana styles—whether you’re a fingerstyle player or a strummer. It’s a more affordable and practical version of the Joe Bonamassa 00-18.

Overview

This 00 14-Fret Grand Concert guitar features a short 24.9" scale. It is crafted from high-quality materials: a solid Sitka spruce top, a laminated sapele back and sides, a mahogany neck, and an ebony fingerboard. This combination of woods produces a tone that is both warm and clear, with powerful bass, rich mids, and sparkling highs.

A rich sound thanks to high-quality materials

The ebony fingerboard offers natural sound compression, providing appreciable clarity, particularly depending on the musical styles being played. Furthermore, its acoustic volume is impressive given its compact 00-style dimensions.

Modern features for optimal performance

Equipped with a Martin E1 electronics system, this guitar allows you to easily adjust volume, tone, and phase to minimize feedback and boost the bass, while also featuring a convenient built-in tuner.

A finish that evokes history

The “1937 Joe Bonamassa Sunburst” finish perfectly complements the instrument by recreating the vintage look of a pre-war model, adding a touch of authenticity to this magnificent guitar.
