Big tone in a compact body

The Martin 000CJrE Acoustic Bass gives you the sound of a full-sized bass in a more compact format. Designed with Martin’s 000 Junior body shape and a 24.9" scale length, this acoustic bass delivers impressive low-end warmth and projection in a more manageable size. The smaller body makes it easy to handle and comfortable to play, especially for extended sessions or travelling. Ideal for stage use, studio sessions, the 000CJrE gives you that full-bodied Martin tone without the bulk. It’s perfect if you're after a traditional acoustic bass but want something easier to carry and play without sacrificing sound.

Solid tonewoods for natural warmth

Built with a solid spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, the 000CJrE brings the tonewood quality you’d expect from a full-size Martin into a more compact format. Spruce is known for its clarity and dynamic range, while sapele adds a strong midrange presence with a touch of natural brightness. Together, they produce a warm, balanced tone that suits everything from fingerstyle grooves to percussive rhythm playing. The all-solid construction means this bass will continue to open up and sound better with age, delivering more character the more you play it. It’s a rare find in a compact acoustic bass and sets the 000CJrE apart in its category.

Stage-ready electronics with built-in tuner

With the onboard Martin E-1 electronics system, the 000CJrE is built for performance. You get a built-in tuner for quick, precise tuning on the fly, along with volume, tone, and phase controls to shape your sound and prevent feedback. This makes it incredibly easy to switch from home use to live performances without needing extra gear. The electronics are discreetly integrated into the body, maintaining the bass’s clean lines and sophisticated aesthetic. Great for solo gigs, studio recordings, or full band sets, the E-1 system offers reliable and great-sounding amplification that preserves the acoustic character of the instrument.

Comfortable playability with modern features

Playability is where the 000CJrE really shines. The neck features Martin’s PA Profile with a High Performance Taper, giving you a modern feel that’s fast and easy to navigate up and down the fretboard. The FSC-certified Richlite fingerboard has been refined with a gently bevelled edge, offering a smooth playing experience straight out of the box. Combined with the satin finish on both the top and neck, it reduces friction for more fluid hand movement. String spacing has also been adjusted for improved accuracy and comfort, especially when playing intricate fingerstyle lines. All these thoughtful details come together to make the 000CJrE one of the most enjoyable acoustic basses to play, regardless of your style.
