Joe Bonamassa’s Pre-War-Inspired Martin Acoustics Have Arrived

Joe Bonamassa’s vault is one of the most coveted collections of gear on the planet. Thankfully for players everywhere, he’s made it a tradition to recreate his favorite gear from that vault. Now, Martin and Bonamassa team up to recreate his prized 00-18 in two stunning remakes: the Martin 00-18 Joe Bonamassa and the Martin 00-10E Retro Joe Bonamassa.

Both remake models sport the 1937 Joe Bonamassa Sunburst finish recreating the timeless visual charm of his pre-war 00-18. The 00-18 remake is lovingly handcrafted in Nazareth, PA, and features a mahogany body with a spruce top and GE scalloped X bracing, delivering warm, well-projected tone with the played-in feel of a pre-war acoustic. For an accessible price of admission, check out the 00-10E! Its spruce top, sapele body, and E1 electronics deliver a vibrant, stage-ready sound for a great value.
