DX2E Ziricote Burst Guitar

The back and sides of all Martin X-Series models are made of HPL – high pressure laminate. This sustainable, man-made material, consisting of multiple layers of special paper, bonded with resin under high pressure has excellent sonic characteristics and is extremely strong. This, along with the low cost, makes HPL the perfect material for Martin’s entry level models, which is why Martin started using it as early as in the nineties.
Now, for 2024, the people at Martin gave the X-Series a full make-over! The most spectacular specimens of wood, from Martins stock have been expertly photographed for the new prints on these guitars. If the grain on your guitar is going to be a print, it might as well be the most beautiful print possible.
Furthermore, all X-Series models that are factory equipped with a pickup system now come with the Martin E-1 System.
Another change for all new X-series models is improved playability. The fingerboard is thinner with a gently beveled comfort edge and refined string spacing and the bridge contour was modernized for a smooth and comfortable playing experience.

Ziricote is an absolutely spectacular wood. Its color is deep and rich and its grain is playfully swirly. Martin have used some of his most beautiful specimens of Ziricote from their stock to photograph and skillfully print on the HPL back and sides of this model.
For the best possible sound, the top is made of solid spruce. To keep up with the beauty of the back and sides, it is sprayed in a dark sunburst. Like all X2 models the D-X2E Ziricote comes with a neck, fretboard and bridge, made from selected hardwoods.
To get you ready for the stage, it’s equipped with Martin’s E-1 system.
