Part of Martin's 2106 X Series, the DCX1RAE is a Dreadnought cutaway model made up of a Sitka spruce top paired with rosewood pattern HPL back and sides for a great sounding, and highly durable guitar. A FSC Certified Richlite fingerboard and bridge and Fishman Sonitone electronics complete this model and make this guitar an understated, eye-catching beauty with great durability. Other appointments include a modern belly, drop-in saddle, non-scalloped X bracing, a hand-rubbed, brown birch laminate neck with a Performance Artist profile and High Performance taper for, well, a much easier playing experience, and multi-stripe rosette. Best of all this model includes sustainable wood certified parts so you can feel good knowing you are doing right by your music and the environment.
