The tonewoods of singer/songwriters





Sourced sustainably and FSC-certified, the tonewoods in the 000JR-10E Shawn Mendes Signature offer time-tested acoustic tones that’ll drive along your songwriting and highlight your vocal talents. With a spruce top, this guitar sings with strong fundamentals - that means heartfelt fingerpicking and soulful chords will find a strong, complimentary voice. Then, its sapele back and sides offer an extended treble range, balancing out the tonal capabilities of the body. Lastly, its strong sipo neck and a stunning ebony fingerboard top it off with dazzling looks and exceptional resonance.

Comfortable body shape and specialized appointments





Whether you’re used to a full fretted acoustic or inspired to pick up the first guitar of your musical education, the 000JR-10E Shawn Mendes Signature offers a comfortable playing experience for all. Its neck sports 14 frets and its scaled down Auditorium-sized body easily transports to the stage and studio for performance with stellar playability. Martin made sure to make this signature model special and to do this they etched a swallow-inspired design onto the bridge wings. Mendes has said that his swallow tattoo signifies home as a place that means family, friends, and those you love. Every time you pick up your 000JR-10E Shawn Mendes Signature acoustic, you’ll remember what fills your music with passion and spirit!





FSC-certified construction





With tonewood resources dwindling, Martin is doing their part to preserve this valuable resource. To do that without compromising their storied build quality, Martin leaned on the expertise of the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) to procure sustainably sourced tonewoods. FSC works with local growers and sawmills to ethically harvest resources, promote worker's rights and employment conditions, protect indigenous peoples' rights, and much more. Forest products that meet FSC standards are recognized as FSC-certified. By using FSC-certified tonewoods for the 000JR-10E Shawn Mendes Signature Acoustic, Martin is making a serious step forward in ethical instrument production. And players can own a world-class guitar guilt free.
