Big Martin Dreadnought Voice, Built To Go Anywhere
If you want that classic Martin dread rumble without babying an all-solid guitar, the D-X2E Brazilian Rosewood hits a very sweet spot. Big, loud, and warm where it counts, with modern playability and a tough-as-nails HPL body that can handle real life.
Iconic Dreadnought Punch With Strong Bass
This is Martin’s legendary D-14 fret dreadnought silhouette, so you get that familiar wall of sound: bold lows, clear mids, and enough volume to hold its own in a mix. Strum it hard and it barks, back off and it responds with a sweet, even glow that works for fingerstyle, flatpicking, and everything in between.
The X-braced, scalloped spruce top is the engine here. Spruce braces and a 5/16″ pattern keep it responsive and lively, so chords bloom and single notes cut without getting harsh.
Spruce Top Sparkle, Brazilian Rosewood HPL Durability
Up top you get a satin spruce soundboard that feels smooth and broken in, with a single-ring abalone pattern rosette adding just the right amount of flash. The hand-rubbed satin finish keeps it resonant and glare free under stage lights.
Out back, the Brazilian rosewood HPL delivers the look of high-end rosewood with way more stability. It is resistant to dings, humidity swings, and the abuse that comes with gigs, travel, and life. You get that classic Martin vibe without freaking out every time the weather changes.
Comfortable Neck And Player-Focused Fingerboard
The select hardwood neck with Martin’s PA profile and High-Performance taper feels fast but substantial. It fills your hand enough for solid chords, yet stays sleek up high for leads and capo work.
The thinner fingerboard with a gently beveled comfort edge is one of those details you notice around the second set. It makes long sessions easier on your fretting hand, and the refined string spacing keeps fingerstyle clean while still feeling natural for big cowboy chords.
Plug In And Go With Martin E-1 Electronics
When it is time to hit the PA, the onboard Martin E-1 system keeps things simple and musical. You get a built-in chromatic tuner, plus volume, tone, and phase controls right where you need them.
Roll in a bit of tone for sparkle, use the phase switch to tame feedback on stage, and you are ready for anything from solo coffeehouse sets to full band worship rigs. No external preamp required, just plug in and play.

This guitar comes Plek’d for precise fretwork, which means clean notes, smooth slides, and low, buzz-free action when it is set up right. We take it from there with our free pro setup, dialing in your preferred string gauge and action so it feels like home from the first chord.
