The Martin 000-X2E offers the classic design, tone, and playability that has made the 000X series a favorite among guitarists of various styles. The 000-X2E features a Sitka spruce top with HPL back and sides for a bold tone expressed through all three ranges — crisp highs, balanced mids, and rich lows. A select hardwood neck and fingerboard offer wonderful playability and response, great for flat-picking and finger-picking styles. Further, onboard Fishman MX electronics deliver wonderful amplified acoustic tone when you plug in.
The Martin Auditorium body has been a favorite among performing guitarists for many decades. It delivers rich low end, while giving each note a balance and clarity that works as a solo instrument, for accompanying your voice, and for layering in a full arrangement. The neck joins the body at the 14th fret for a total scale length of 24.9". The neck is built with Martin's Modified Low Oval profile with High Performance Taper to appeal to today's guitarists.
We took the 000X1AE and reimagined it. The result is the 000-X2E. This Auditorium sized model has a spruce top and figured mahogany pattern high-pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides. New mother-of-pearl pattern inlay on the rosette and fingerboard lend a richness to the 000-X2E, making it as impressive to look at as it is to play. With a Performing Artist neck, fingerboard, and bridge of select hardwood, the sound transfer of this model has been greatly improved. It is equipped with Fishman® MX electronics and strung with Martin’s Authentic Acoustic Lifespan® 2.0 strings. With a new, soft gig bag featuring headstock, bridge, and endpin protectors, a durable water-repellent exterior, and foam padding, this model is ready to go anywhere!
