I went to my local guitar shop to pick up a guitar that had some warranty work done. There was a 00010E on the wall, my wife was with me at the time, so I have to go back next week to pick this 00010E up. I told her my last guitar would be the last. I bought a guitar since I told her that and I will pick this one up too. Donʻt tell her.
I love mine. Great build and good action right out of the box. Sounds terrific, though as you'd expect quite different than a spruce top. I continue to use the stock Martin Lifespan 2.0 12-54 light gauge strings. Good volume for a smaller body and tons of sustain. Spoon gave a great demo. It's my favorite guitar to play due to the 24.9" scale, 1.75" nut, the 000 size and the performing artist neck profile. My beloved Martin spruce/mahogany dread has taken a back seat now. Comes with a nice light but protective soft case too. I tend to sell my guitars every 3 or 4 years just to have something different, but I'll be keeping this one.
This guitar, or at least the one I bought, sounded better to my ears than any of the USA made 000s. I had the money to spend, but happily bought this with more than enough left over to buy a Faith Neptune Blood Moon. Another superb instrument, designed in England and hand built in Indonesia.
I wanted a OOO, a dealer I get gear from offered one to me at such a good price I bit. A pandemic purchase ( the guitarsenal has been expending). I brought it without playing it. It is a remarkable guitar. I put nickel alloy strings on it and couldn’t be happier. Aside from the prestige of buying and American OOO15M, of which I have played many, I can’t imagine feeling I need a better OOO M or S wood guitar. Records great.
Beautiful..did some research about Sepele wood ..got more wight than the other mahogany woods and denser to .Sounds lovely when tone tapped .gorgeous ping to it ..Answers why the Mex road series are abit heavier than the USA models 15 series .All making sense now
Beautiful sounding guitar at any price ..you don’t need whistles and bells ..tone ..quality woods and build ..the way you play it ..not much snobbery with guitars ..just bought a Gorgeous Gibson J15 burst ..one of those will sit nicely with it ..great reviews once again ..lovely playing to ..All you need ..oh and forget where it is made to ..hand built guitar ..
@@TaartjeMetSlagroom no, still sounds fine, although i had it readjusted by the shop. Lighter strings and lowered the action, especially at the nut. Now it almost plays as light as my electric guitars.
Heart of a beautiful acoustic that matters not the frills or fancy stuff ..rather have a basic looking stripped down guitar to play and enjoy ..gets scratches or knocks I’m not to bothered ..guitar to play live and at home ..Wear in to ..perfect ..played one and thought it was the USA model until I looked at the label ..wow ..played sounded lovely ..all in the head some stuff ..Sick of the Mexican grafts boys and girls getting put down ..Being stuck up ..just play the thing ..Hand made instrument ..great playing review .Rather have that than a £3000 models ..piss them of how beautiful it sounds 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ahhh! OK, this is what I meant to say on the previous comment: 'After a lot of shopping, I decided on the 000 rs1,but I already knew I didn't really like the sound of the Fishman Sonotone (online, that is. No, I didn't try it in real life) and THAT WEEK they discontinued it and sold what seems to be the only one in town! Of course, it has been replaced with the 000 10e and I wonder if anyone has been able to compare them side by side.
I've tried both, they are almost the same guitars. I don't think it's a tuner on rs1? But very much the same. 10e is yet another improved version i guess. I bought the 10e, the mic (the Fishman Sonotone)has its limitations. But you can safely use this on tour, if thats what you are worry about. But this is my second guitar, so im no expert:-)
Its a damn ugly guitar, but I love mine. Mine is the older version with the stratabond neck, again ugly but really nice to play. Id go so far as say this is a truly all round acoustic at a fantastic price.

I hope everything worked out between you and the guitar

That's a gnarly name for a guitar line (in a good way). lol
Just ordered my second one I love this guitar
That's vicious!!! XD

Just purchased one can't put it down - Wonderful sound and looks great - action was perfect out of the box
Thank you for the great demo of this guitar, much appreciated.
ok. wtf. is this all solid sapele??? at this price? all guitarists should have this at home!!
This video definately does this guitar justice

Nice guitar, well played. I want one
Guess what, i bought one!
@Rivvvy great sounding quality instrument, very happy with it 👍
@@lhu1961 hi, just curious, are you still happy with the guitar? Have you noticed any changes in sound over time?
@@TaartjeMetSlagroom no, still sounds fine, although i had it readjusted by the shop. Lighter strings and lowered the action, especially at the nut. Now it almost plays as light as my electric guitars.
@@lhu1961 nice! Thanks for responding
The Martin Web Site says 24.9" scale length
Please accept our apologies - you are correct.
Long scale? Martin's website says it's 24.9" scale length...is their website wrong? (I'd really like for this to be short scale!)
VERY sorry, this is SHORT scale 24.9".
At 975 euros in Europe this guitar is far from affordable.
Us prices… the import costs on all guitars are horrendous :/
And it’s compared to other Martin guitars
1129,- now

It seems it sounds as it has a flanger on it 🤔
Nice. It sounds a bit like a Koa top guitar. 😊
Matching hat
Except these don’t have the long scale you’re referencing …
Did this guitar replace the Martin 000RS1 ?
Yes
Actually, I think that's Martin's short scale neck.
Ahhh! OK, this is what I meant to say on the previous comment: 'After a lot of shopping, I decided on the 000 rs1,but I already knew I didn't really like the sound of the Fishman Sonotone (online, that is.

Yes, and believe it or not 000 10 is really better guitar. It has an all solid neck unlike 000rs1 and had scalloped bracing so the tone is better
@@metalrunner4398 later versions of the 000rs1 had solid necks. Mine does, Its from 2018. They still had hard cases through 2018 as well.
what exactly the improvements Martin did to 000 10e from rs1 000?
The price
They scalloped the braces, which one would expect to add to responsiveness. The higher end guitars usually have scalloped braces.
Better pickup system
@@musikus7092 From what I've read it's the same Sonitone piezo system. They added a mini tuner
No more stratabond neck
What's the difference between this one and the D10e Sapele?
D is the full size Dreadnought shape. This 000 is the smaller auditorium size body, with a shallower depth.
What is the song @ 4:10 ?
how are you recording that sound ?
Can you give me the body dimensions and depth?
Thanks.
How does this size compare to a dreadnought and a GS mini? Somewhere in the middle?
The GS Mini is not a full size guitar. The 000(rs1) is a full size guitar, but has a smaller body than a dreadnought
hi, do you have free shipping to mexico?
i am interested in buying this guitar
USA Martin dealers are not allowed to export new Martins outside of the US. Sorry.
Interesting. It's made there. Welcome to the absurd world of globalization...lol
@@IRequireMedication lmao
I bought a fender PM-3 triple O instead
Is this solid back?
As far as i know 10e only have solid top. thats what the internet told me so😉
@@WolfvsHammer Thank you. I was thinking how this sounds compared to the X2E series
Solid back and sides
All sides are solid
@@abd-ix5qd he's wrong this guitar is all solid back and sides along with solid top and neck
Its a damn ugly guitar, but I love mine. Mine is the older version with the stratabond neck, again ugly but really nice to play. Id go so far as say this is a truly all round acoustic at a fantastic price.
Nothing ugly about it!!! Infact it's better looking than a ooo12..and a ooo28... only the ooo42 is more beautiful.
