The front of the Martin D-X2E Dreadnought is made from solid spruce, while the back and sides are made from modern HPL in Brazilian rosewood. This combination of materials not only saves the environment, but also provides the instrument with good sound and playing characteristics. The good acoustic properties of the guitar are accentuated by the reduced X-ribs (Scalloped X-Brace) of the soundboard.
A Select Hardwood neck, attached to the body at the fourteenth fret as standard, is joined by a 20-fret hardwood fingerboard. A TusQ composite saddle on the hardwood fingerboard, together with a Corian fretboard, provides the strings with excellent resonance and sustain. The stylish finish is accentuated by closed chrome tuning mechanisms and an imitation mother-of-pearl rosette (abalone pattern).
The Martin E-1's active electronics with volume and tone controls in the guitar's soundhole and push/push switches for Phase (180-degree phase rotation) and Tuner to activate the chromatic tuner offer sound reinforcement options. The guitar comes in a quality case (Soft Shell), making it instantly ready to be loaded into the trunk of your car/van for long or short trips to pursue your musical dreams.
The American Martin company, founded in 1833, is quite deservedly one of the biggest and most respected names in stringed instruments. For decades, it has been one of the leading innovators in guitar design and manufacturing technology. However, to use only the past tense would be a great mistake; instruments with the Martin logo are still today among the guarantees of the highest quality in craftsmanship and sound. In addition, their current products use "eco-friendly" components made from renewable resources and composite materials.
