About This NEW Martin Guitar
C.F. Martin & Co. D-10E Retro – Martin Acoustic-Electric Guitar
The Martin D-10E Retro is a classic, no-nonsense Martin acoustic-electric guitar built for players who value bold projection, rich low-end punch, and stage-ready reliability over unnecessary flash. Combining an all-solid-wood design with the legendary power of a full-sized dreadnought body, this model delivers the iconic, room-filling sound Martin is known for—equally suited for flatpicking jams, studio recording, and live performances.
This Martin acoustic-electric is constructed with a choice of premium tonewood configurations (available in both a solid spruce top with aging toner or a dark mahogany stained solid sapele top, paired with solid sapele back and sides), producing a focused, woody tone with immense dynamic headroom. Supported by scalloped X-bracing, the soundboard moves freely to emphasize strong bass response and crisp note definition, allowing chords to ring out with outstanding volume and clarity.
Designed with modern players in mind, the fast-playing Performing Artist neck profile and High Performance Taper make this dreadnought incredibly comfortable and easy to play, minimizing left-hand fatigue during long gigs or writing sessions. The understated Retro aesthetic pays tribute to Martin's timeless workhorse heritage, highlighted by a smooth satin finish, a multi-stripe rosette, and vintage-style nickel open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs.
For amplified performance, the D-10E Retro comes equipped with versatile Martin E1 electronics, delivering a natural, transparent plugged-in tone via simple onboard volume and tone controls alongside a built-in tuner. Whether you are driving a bluegrass ensemble, tracking acoustic rhythm paths, or performing solo under the lights, this guitar is ready to take the stage.
If you’re searching for a powerful, all-solid-wood Martin acoustic-electric guitar that pairs unmistakable dreadnought authority with gig-ready reliability, the Martin D-10E Retro is an exceptional choice.
