The Martin 000-Jr-E Jeff Tweedy is a signature collaboration with the Wilco frontman, designed to be a "songwriter’s companion" that balances compact comfort with a full-sized voice. Inspired by Tweedy’s custom 00DB model, this Junior Series guitar offers a smaller footprint without sacrificing the professional feel and honest expression required for the stage.
This model is built with a focus on environmental responsibility, featuring FSC®-certified solid sapele for the top, back, and sides. Sapele delivers a warm, punchy "dry" tone similar to mahogany, providing a crisp midrange that perfectly complements vocals. The body is supported by scalloped 1/4" spruce X-bracing, ensuring the guitar remains responsive and resonant despite its scaled-down dimensions.
One of the most unique features of the 000-Jr-E Jeff Tweedy is its 24.9” scale length. While most Junior models feature a significantly shorter scale, this guitar maintains the standard Martin short-scale tension and feel, making it an easy transition for players used to full-sized 000 or OM models. The Performing Artist neck profile and High-Performance Taper further enhance playability, offering a slim, modern feel that stays comfortable through long writing sessions.
The guitar’s look is a direct reflection of Jeff Tweedy’s understated, vintage-inspired style. It features:
Equipped with Martin E1 electronics, this guitar is ready to plug in at a moment's notice. The system includes discreet volume and tone controls and a built-in chromatic tuner located inside the soundhole, allowing the guitar to maintain its traditional acoustic aesthetic while providing reliable, natural amplified sound.
The Martin 000-Jr-E Jeff Tweedy is the perfect choice for the traveling musician or the songwriter looking for an approachable, high-quality instrument that captures the soul of an alt-country icon.
