Breakthrough asymmetrical acoustic-electric pushes the boundaries of onstage playability.

The Martin SC-13E Special Etimoe acoustic-electric guitar is a revolutionary instrument that redefines what an acoustic-electric guitar can achieve. Featuring a single-cutaway design, Martin S body shape, Sure Align neck system, and Martin E-1 electronics, this guitar is designed for comfort, playability, and versatility. Whether you're playing leads all the way up the neck, performing long sets, or needing higher volume on stage, the SC-13E delivers an exceptional experience.

Innovative Martin S Series Body Shape

The first thing you'll notice about the SC-13E is its unique S body shape. Designed from the ground up for amplified performance, the asymmetrical body provides balanced output, allowing for more gain before feedback. This design enables you to play louder and with more confidence, making it perfect for live performances.

Sure Align Neck System

One of the most intriguing features of the SC-13E is the patent-pending Sure Align neck system. By removing the traditional heel, Martin has provided full access to all 19 frets, allowing for comfortable playability across the entire fretboard. This system is fully adjustable for inclination and intonation, adapting to different playing styles and string gauges, ensuring ideal playability at all times.

Low-Profile Velocity Neck Barrel

The SC-13E is equipped with a low-profile velocity neck barrel that ergonomically fits your hand, offering the comfort and playability of an electric guitar. This design eliminates the need to bring multiple guitars to a gig, as the SC-13E can handle all your performance needs, allowing you to play comfortably all night long.

Advanced Martin Electronics

Designed for live performance, the SC-13E features Martin E-1 electronics with volume and tone controls discreetly placed inside the soundhole, along with a well-lit tuner that mutes audio automatically when engaged. This setup ensures that the guitar sounds amazing both plugged in and unplugged, whether you're on stage, in the studio, or strumming at home. The SC-13E removes the limitations of traditional acoustic-electric guitars, letting you play without restrictions.

High-Quality Hardware and Modern Design

The SC-13E Special Etimoe boasts premium hardware, including an ebony bridge with a sloped modern belly design, white Tusq saddle, and chrome open gear tuning machines. The headplate is made of ebony, and the guitar features a solid headstock with a square taper. The tortoise pattern pickguard adds a classic touch to its modern design. The guitar's body is finished with UV gloss, and it includes a soft shell case for easy transport and protection.

The Martin SC-13E Special Etimoe acoustic-electric guitar offers groundbreaking design and unparalleled playability. Its innovative features and high-quality construction make it a top choice for both aspiring guitarists and seasoned professionals. Experience the freedom and versatility of the SC-13E and take home a guitar that will inspire your musical journey.
