Martin 000C-10E - Western Guitar  

Martin

Martin is a reputable American company which has been making guitars for almost 200 years. Throughout the years they have become one of the best when it comes to western guitars. This is because quality is their biggest priority. Consequently, Martin guitars are very popular. There are even many famous guitarists who use Martin guitars, like Muddy Waters, Bob Dylan, and David Gilmour. Furthermore, their production process is environmentally friendly. Since the ‘90s they have worked together with the FSC to prevent deforestation. They only use wood from trees that have to be cut down to keep the forest healthy. The other parts of the guitar are recycled, as well. By purchasing a Martin guitar you are thus not only investing in quality, but also the environment.

The Road Series

Martin developed the Road Series in order to produce the ideal studio and stage guitars. In this process, they looked at what professional guitarists wanted in a studio and stage guitar. Subsequently, they combined these needs into the Road Series guitars. Furthermore, the price doesn’t indicate the quality, because the prices are significantly lower than most professional studio and stage guitars on the market. This means the guitars aren’t only suited for professional guitarists, but also up-and-coming guitarists and amateurs. All Road Series guitars are delivered with Fishman MX-T electronics. This system creates an authentic amplified sound. The system is hidden inside the guitar, so it also looks authentic. The Road Series guitars are available in different shapes, kinds, finishes, colours, and materials.

The 000C-10E

The 000C-10E is a professional Grand Performance guitar. Because of the shape of the guitar, it’s very suitable for fingerpicking, whereas because of the size of the guitar it’s also great for rhythm guitar. This is complemented by the choice of tonewoods; the entire body is made of solid sapele. This results in a bright sound and balances out the midrange. Furthermore, this gives the guitar a beautiful appearance; the beautiful and deep mid-brown colour of the sapele gives an exotic vibe. The satin finish emphasises this contrast while simultaneously protecting the wood. The 000C-10E is thus a professional guitar with a clear sound!
