About This Guitar
Martin DE Retro Plus Acoustic Electric Guitar
The Martin DE Retro Plus Mahogany blends vintage tonal character with contemporary craftsmanship, delivering the seasoned resonance of a well-aged Martin right out of the case.
It features a torrefied solid spruce top, thermally aged to mimic decades of playing, paired with solid mahogany back and sides and scalloped spruce X‑bracing for rich warmth, balanced mids, and crisp clarity.
Sized in the D‑14‑fret “DE” body style with a 25.4″ scale and a comfortable Performing Artist neck, this guitar offers easy playability for full‑chord performance.
Classic Style 18 appointments, including ebony fingerboard and bridge, faux‑tortoise pickguard, and black binding lend a timeless aesthetic, while the Gloss Aging Toner finish gives it a beautifully “played‑in” look.
Ready for stage and studio, the DE Retro Plus is equipped with the Martin E‑1 electronics system, featuring a tuner, tone and phase controls, and an under saddle pickup - ideal for plugging into amps or PA systems with ease.
Whether you're a gigging musician or a serious hobbyist stepping into Martin territory, the Martin DE Retro Plus offers vintage sound, aesthetic charm, and dependable amplification at a smart value.
