The Martin DJR-10E acoustic-electric bass represents the perfect solution for bassists who love to write and practice on an unplugged bass but also need the option to plug in for recording or live performance with their band. Part of Martin's Junior Series, this instrument is slightly smaller than full-sized basses but delivers remarkable tone and volume without sacrificing Martin's legendary sound quality, while gaining plenty of comfort and portability. Featuring a spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, the DJR-10E delivers thumping Martin bass tones whether unplugged or using the built-in Fishman Presys VT Bass electronics.
Product Overview
The DJR-10E showcases a spruce top that provides the bright, clear projection and dynamic response that Martin guitars are renowned for, while the solid sapele back and sides contribute warm, rich fundamental tones with excellent sustain. The D Junior 14-fret body size offers the perfect balance between playability and acoustic projection, making it ideal for both intimate practice sessions and full band performances. The X-brace pattern with scalloped bracing optimizes the top's resonance for maximum acoustic output.
The 24" scale length provides comfortable playability while maintaining proper string tension for authentic bass tone, complemented by a fast, comfortable neck with D Junior shape and high-performance taper for enhanced ergonomics. The Richlite fingerboard with 20 frets and mother of pearl inlay provides smooth playing action, while the mortise and tenon neck joint ensures optimal tone transfer and structural integrity.

The instrument comes strung with Martin short scale bass strings made specifically for this instrument, ensuring optimal tone and playability right out of the case.
