The Martin 000 Jr E Jeff Tweedy reimagines Martin’s Jr-sized formula with a rustic alt-country vibe, boasting a style and sound inspired by the Wilco front man’s time-honored signature model. This compact, stage-ready instrument sports a premium all-solid-wood construction, featuring an FSC-certified sapele top, back, and sides. Not only does sapele capture the elegant aesthetic of traditional mahogany, but it also delivers a warm, punchy drawl that sits perfectly behind a vocal — whether performed acoustically or plugged in, thanks to Martin’s E-1 electronics system. On the other end, an FSC-certified duo of a slim Performing Artist-profile select hardwood neck and ebony fingerboard allows you to tackle any song or style in your repertoire — Wilco or otherwise — with optimal speed and comfort. A slinky 24.9-inch scale length and a fingerstyle-ready 1.75-inch nut width only cement this 6-string’s high-performing status. Complete with Foden-style inlays and a stunning Tweedy Burst finish, this 000 Jr E Jeff Tweedy is sure to thrill songwriters and pickers of all styles and backgrounds.
FSC-certified solid sapele body
The 000 Jr E Jeff Tweedy boasts an all-solid-wood body comprised of responsibly sourced, FSC-certified sapele. Strikingly similar to the mahogany found on Jeff’s standard signature model, sapele offers a warm, punchy, and crisp tone that complements the 000 Jr E Jeff Tweedy’s small-bodied construction. What’s more, scalloped X-bracing ensures that this 6-string sings with a dynamic drawl, packing an impressive level of low-end heft for its compact size.
Plug in or vibe out
It’s a Martin, so you know the 000 Jr E Jeff Tweedy sounds immaculate played acoustically, but you’ll be glad to know it’s also equipped with Martin’s E-1 electronics system. With the E-1, you can plug in at gigs or into your recording interface to achieve a dynamic and natural sound. The E-1 features a pickup mounted at the bridge, with Volume/Phase and Tone controls mounted for discreet and easy access underneath the soundhole. The built-in chromatic tuner will also keep your 000 Jr E Jeff Tweedy sounding dialed in without requiring an instrument cable.
Jeff Tweedy: defining the sound of alt-country since 1990
From his origins with the band Uncle Tupelo to his 3-decade tenure as the front man of Wilco, Jeff Tweedy is a foundational figure in the world of alternative country. His highly acclaimed oeuvre includes more than 20 studio albums, 10 Grammy nominations, and four Grammy wins to his name. Most exciting of all to City Music’s guitar nerds is Jeff’s status as an unabashed gearhead — the “Wilco Loft” in Chicago houses Jeff and the band’s sprawling collection of instruments and studio tools, with the number of guitars said to reach perilously close to the 3-figure mark!
