The 000-13E Retro Walnut brings a step-up tonewood and Style 28 looks to Martin's Road Series. A solid spruce top with an aging toner sits over solid black walnut back and sides, the wood Pennsylvania locals call "Pennsylvania rosewood." Walnut gives it a warm midrange, articulate highs and long sustain, and the 000 body keeps everything balanced across all six strings.
Scalloped X-bracing adds clarity and response, the Performing Artist neck with High-Performance Taper feels smooth and modern, and Martin E1 electronics with a built-in tuner make it ready for the stage. White binding, a Style 28 rosette, 28-style dot inlays and nickel open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs give it a classic Martin look at a Road Series price. We're Martin-certified repair techs as well as a dealer, so we're happy to answer setup questions before or after you buy.
