Junior Acoustic Electric Bass With Compact Body and Big Bass Response

The 000 Junior cutaway shape of this acoustic-electric bass provides a smaller, more ergonomic feel without compromising tonal depth or projection. The scalloped X-bracing pattern enhances resonance and helps balance frequencies, ensuring this instrument delivers a full-bodied bass tone that's rich and clear. Its compact size is perfect for players who prefer a lighter instrument, making it easy to transition from stage to studio or practice at home. The reduced body dimensions also make it lap-friendly, providing comfort for long playing sessions while maintaining powerful low-end presence.

Martin Solid Spruce Top and Sapele Body for Balanced Sound

The 000C Jr 10E Junior pairs a solid spruce top with a solid sapele back and sides for a dynamic and versatile tonal character. The spruce top contributes articulate highs and clear projection, while the sapele body adds warmth and resonance, especially in the lower frequencies. This combination produces a rich, balanced sound that complements the bass guitar's natural role within the rhythm section. Whether you're playing unplugged or amplified, the carefully selected tonewoods ensure every note is full and defined, making this model a reliable choice for players who demand clarity and depth.

Martin E-1 Electronics for Amplified Precision

The Martin E-1 electronics system captures the natural acoustic tone of the 000C Jr 10E bass with exceptional clarity, making it ideal for live performances or recording sessions. The built-in pickup accurately translates the balanced sound of the spruce and sapele tonewoods, while the onboard controls allow for quick adjustments to suit any setting. The preamp provides clean, warm amplification that preserves the instrument's character, ensuring your sound remains authentic and responsive under any conditions. With intuitive controls and reliable amplification, the E-1 system guarantees consistent, studio-grade performance.

Durable Construction With Premium Appointments

The Martin 000C Jr 10E acoustic-electric bass guitar is crafted with durability and attention to detail in mind. The Richlite fingerboard and bridge offer superior strength and resistance to wear, while chrome bass tuners provide stable and precise tuning adjustments.
