Incredible Value in a Solid-top Martin Dreadnought

Fishman MX-T system with built-in tuner

When you want to hit the stage with the D-13E Ziricote, it’ll be ready thanks to Fishman MX-T electronics. The Fishman MX-T system is an update of the popular Matrix series and features a line-of-sight tuner located in the soundhole. This built-in tuner auto-mutes the audio output when engaged, so your audience doesn't hear you tune up. Its convenient placement in the soundhole allows you a full view without straining to see its LCD screen. All you have to do is look down. The D-13E Ziricote is a stellar acoustic-electric guitar — it has everything it needs to be your number one in the studio, onstage, and anywhere else where top-shelf playability, comfort, and versatility are a concern.

A cornerstone of modern music

Martin's early dreadnoughts set into motion the guitar's prominent role in modern music, while setting the standard for tone quality in acoustic guitars. Martin dreadnoughts became known for resonant warm tones, quality craftsmanship, and tasteful styling. For those reasons, Martin guitars emerged as an important part of the music written and performed by the stars of the 1920s and '30s. Post-World War II, the Martin dreadnought became a cornerstone of the folk and folk rock music scenes of the '50s and '60s. The powerful voice and full sound of these iconic instruments have also made them a staple in the bluegrass world, but their bold sonic signature continues to reverberate across a variety of genres.

The C.F. Martin & Co. legacy

What hasn't been said about the C.F. Martin & Company? Martin — a name virtually synonymous with the acoustic guitar — took root in the United States in 1833 with a little shop in lower Manhattan. Five years later, Christian Frederick Martin moved his business and family to the rolling hills of Pennsylvania, where Martin's been located ever since. From the Dreadnought body shape to the 14-fret neck, Martin innovations paralleled (and indeed, drove) the development of the acoustic guitar itself. When you play any Martin guitar, you're holding a piece of music history.
