Martin SC-13E Modern Acoustic Electric Guitar: Road Series

The Martin SC-13E Modern is an offset S-style acoustic-electric from the Road Series, pairing a solid spruce top with koa fine veneer back and sides. The result is a clear, balanced voice with good projection and a tight low end, suited to strumming and fingerstyle playing alike.

A Low Profile Velocity neck, Sure Align neck joint and 13-fret cutaway give easy access up the fingerboard with an electric-style feel, while the LR Baggs Element pickup delivers natural, stage-ready amplified tone. With a Martin softshell case included, it is ideal for gigging players and songwriters who want modern playability from a Martin.
