The Martin D-X2E Brazilian Rosewood features back and sides made from rosewood high pressure laminate (HPL), a tonewood known for its superior density and hardness. This characteristic gives the guitar a warm and resonant tone that is rich and vibrant. The specific species of rosewood used in this guitar, Brazilian rosewood, offers a complex tonal palette and a stunning appearance. With its dark brown hue, fine black lines, and hints of orange, Brazilian rosewood HPL exudes a luxurious and exotic look.
The Martin D-X2E Brazilian Rosewood is equipped with a solid spruce top, which gives the guitar a timeless appearance with its tan-coloured fine wood grain pattern over a creamy white or pinkish background. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, spruce is lightweight and durable, making it a popular choice as a soundboard tonewood. The solid spruce top ensures a broad dynamic tonal range, producing a crisp and articulate sound with minimal overtones. This straightforward, even sound makes spruce top guitars versatile and suitable for various genres and playing styles.
The Martin D-X2E Brazilian Rosewood features a dreadnought body design, which is the most iconic and widely recognised acoustic guitar shape. Dreadnought guitars are characterised by their large size and slightly smaller upper bouts compared to the lower bouts. The distinct shape sets them apart from other acoustic guitar types, which are typically thinner near the soundhole.
One of the advantages of the dreadnought design is its impressive volume levels. Whether you prefer a light touch or a heavy strumming style, the D-X2E Brazilian Rosewood delivers a boomy and powerful tone with substantial sustain. This makes it an excellent choice for playing alongside other musicians or in genres such as pop, rock, country, and bluegrass.
