Martin 0-10E Retro Jason Isbell w/Softshell Case
Overview
The Martin 0-10E Retro Jason Isbell is a Custom Artist Road Series model inspired by Jason’s vintage 1940 Martin 0-17, the guitar he used to record his album Foxes in the Snow. Designed to deliver that same intimate, soulful sound in a more accessible format, this all-mahogany 0-14 fret model pairs solid tonewoods with modern playability and integrated electronics for today’s working songwriter.
Featuring a solid mahogany top, back, and sides, the 0-10E Retro offers warm, focused tone with clear trebles and a punchy midrange. Its Performing Artist neck profile and short 24.9" scale make for a smooth, comfortable feel, while the scalloped X-bracing enhances clarity and responsiveness. A faux tortoise pickguard, nickel open-gear tuners, and East Indian rosewood fingerboard and bridge provide classic 17-style details and understated elegance.
Equipped with Martin E1 electronics, this guitar is stage-ready while maintaining its vintage acoustic character. Strung with Martin Era-Artist Light strings co-developed with Jason Isbell, the 0-10E Retro is a soulful, road-ready instrument designed for players who value honesty, warmth, and tone above all.
