This solid wood Auditorium model is an affordable workhorse with tone for days. The acoustic-electric 000C-10E features a sapele body paired with a select hardwood neck, fingerboard, and bridge. Its popular 000 body size delivers both comfort and volume with a balanced tone across all six strings, perfect for strumming chords and fingerpicking. It’s a smaller, full-sized Martin that still packs a punch. Sapele is a wood that’s similar in appearance and tone to the genuine mahogany found on our higher-end models, providing a powerful midrange, great punch, and bright and airy trebles. This guitar gives you all the playability and tone of a solid wood Martin in an understated, no-frills package that’s ready to play right out of the box. Not only does the 000C-10E sound great unplugged, but the Fishman Matrix VT Enhance electronics give you the option to plug in at home, on stage, and in the studio with onboard volume, tone, and blend controls.
