Solidly built dreadnought with discrete soundhole preamp and tuner.
The Martin D-10E Road Series Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar offers musicians a chance to experience the legendary tone of a Martin dreadnought paired with state-of-the-art electronics. Handcrafted from solid spruce and sapele, this guitar produces a bold sound perfectly suited for any style. The D-10E delivers the musical legacy of Martin in an instrument designed for today's players.
At the heart of the D-10E is a solid Sitka spruce top supported by a sapele back and sides, a pairing that produces a vibrant tone with clarity and depth. The spruce top responds dynamically to a light touch or aggressive attack, while the sapele wood enhances midrange frequencies and crisp treble notes. Together, these tonewoods generate the balanced sound that Martin dreadnoughts are famous for.
Onboard Fishman MX-T electronics accurately capture the D-10E's acoustic properties and allow players to amplify their performance. An intuitive control panel includes volume, tone, and phase knobs to shape the amplified sound, and a built-in tuner ensures perfect intonation at any volume. The MX-T system produces a natural acoustic sound ideal for live shows, recording, or practice.
From the neck joint to the scalloped X-bracing, the D-10E embodies Martin's dedication to detail and quality. A modified low oval neck profile offers a comfortable playing experience, while a Richlite fingerboard provides a smooth surface for intricate fretwork. The D-10E sports understated elegance with a satin finish, multi-stripe rosette, and chrome tuners. All components are carefully selected and installed by Martin's expert luthiers.
For over 180 years, C.F. Martin & Co. has produced acoustic instruments known worldwide for outstanding quality, tone, and playability. The D-10E Road Series Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar upholds this tradition of excellence and provides musicians with a lifetime instrument at an affordable price. Backed by Martin's limited lifetime warranty, the D-10E is built to deliver years of musical enjoyment.
