Uncompromising tone and reliability

The D-X1E range's unique high-pressure laminate surface remains the perfect way to attain a durable acoustic guitar without losing anything in tone. Generated from mahogany chosen by Martin's expert team, this tonewood is known for its dry, resonant low-mids and earthy bass, and open-pore projection. This version of the D-X1E delivers an immediately warm sound that harkens back to classic pre-war guitars played by classic acoustic blues and country singers.

Responsive, smooth playing

Readjusted for 2024, the D-X1E has had several tweaks made to improve its playability even further. A thinner fingerboard makes it easier to travel across the neck, whilst its beveled edges provide the comfortable feel of a familiar guitar that you've already played for years. Carefully refined string spacing ensures easy fretting of chords and simpler strumming. All of this is complimented by a modernised bridge contour that makes sure this guitar plays as naturally as possible, and satin tuners for reliable tuning.

Premium electronics

Designed by Martin themselves, the E-1 electronics found within the D-X1E range provide flexibility in sound and some quality of life features that make it a reliable choice for gigging musicians just as much as dedicated writers. Its built-in chromatic tuner makes it easy to check and set up your tuning immediately. Its volume, tone, and phase controls let you dial in the exact sound characteristics you want, and make it easy to set up play anywhere from your bedroom to the stage, from quiet, unobtrusive strumming to cutting through a venue's PA system.
