Martin D-15E Dreadnought Acoustic Electric Guitar Natural
Martin D-15E Dreadnought Acoustic Electric Guitar Natural – An electrified iteration of Martin’s long-standing mahogany dreadnought classic, the D-15E acoustic-electric guitar comes ready to conquer the stage with cutting-edge electronics and big-bodied unplugged tone. This guitar’s solid mahogany top and solid sapele back and sides supply a smoky, low-end biased drawl that forms the perfect sonic backbone for singer/songwriters, blues pickers, fingerstyle players, and beyond. Plus, the neck’s slim High Performance Taper, wide 1.75-inch nut width, and smooth katalox fingerboard are primed for comfortable playability and effortless performance. However, what sets the D-15E apart from its 15-series siblings is its formidable array of electronics — an easy-to-read soundhole tuner and Martin’s E1 electronics system make it a breeze to authentically electrify the D-15E’s big, booming dreadnought tone on any stage. Simply put, the D-15E represents the perfect marriage of modern acoustic-electric functionality and timeless Martin tonal tradition.

All-solid tonewoods for superior sound
From the solid mahogany top to the solid sapele back and sides, there’s nary a laminate on the mighty Martin D-15E. Compared to its spruce-topped siblings, the D-15E’s hardwood mahogany top provides a darker, smokier, and more midrange-focused tone, with a highly pleasing natural compression when you start to dig in. A set of solid sapele back and sides — tonally very similar to mahogany — perfectly pair with the top to provide a well-defined foundation for complex chording and fiery flatpicking.
Take your tone to the stage
While the D-15E delivers all the tone and playability of the now-classic Martin D-15, there’s one massive difference between the two models: the D-15E gives you access to effortless and authentic plugged-in tones right out of the gate. Adding a pickup system is perhaps the most common Martin mod found here, but the D-15E saves you the trouble entirely with a Martin E1. Moreover, the D-15E also boasts a highly convenient soundhole tuner mounted on the opposite side of the pickup’s controls, ensuring pitch-perfect tone is always only a glance away.
Big, booming, X-braced dreadnought power
The dreadnought design, initially invented by Martin, is the de facto acoustic guitar body shape for two reasons: volume and depth. Smaller-bodied models may compete when it comes to intimate fingerstyle and whisper-quiet playing, but the dreadnought’s massive low end, punchy projection, and sheer volume set it apart from the pack when played unplugged. This guitar’s non-scalloped X-bracing takes it even further with a rich, robust low-end that booms when hit with a pick or strumming cowboy chords to vocal accompaniment.
