Martin X Series 00CXAEBLACK Acoustic Electric Guitar

Martin's historical sound quality in all the latest designs!

Martin Guitar has long recognized the serious nature of the earth’s dwindling resources and has focused attention on alternative materials. At Martin they are committed to making Martin guitars that are within reach of every aspiring guitarist. The breakthrough X-Series features guitars constructed with a combination of highly compressed wood fibers (high-pressure laminate, called HPL) and traditional tonewoods. HPL is extremely durable and workable, and they have crafted ways to build traditional Martin shapes with HPL that yield incredibly long-lasting and affordable guitars. What’s more, they’ve managed to build them so they possess that famous Martin sound and playability found in their more expensive guitars.
