Martin dreadnought guitar with solid sapele
The Martin D-10E Sapele is a dreadnought guitar from the Road Series for guitarists looking for an affordable, great-sounding acoustic guitar. Its all-solid build with a sapele top and solid sapele back and sides gives this model a full sound that matches the larger D-14 fret body size.
The combination of an X-Brace bracing pattern and scalloped braces supports the open, powerful character you expect from a dreadnought. The satin finish on the top and body keeps the look understated and natural.
Playing comfort and amplified use
With a 25.4" scale length, 1 3/4" nut width, Performing Artist neck shape and High Performance Taper, the Martin D-10E Sapele is built with playability in mind. That makes it a strong option for players who want a guitar to grow into and for musicians using it at home, in the studio or on stage.
The Fishman MX-T electronics make this acoustic guitar suitable for amplified use as well. In the Road Series, this system was developed for a classic Martin sound with clear modern projection, and the built-in soundhole tuner automatically mutes the output so you can tune silently while plugged in.

Martin equips this model with an FSC-certified Richlite fingerboard and bridge. The neck joint uses a Mortise & Tenon Neck Joint construction, and it comes strung with Martin Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 (MA550T) 13-56 strings.
