Martin D41: Standard Series Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar (2025)

The Martin D-41 stands as one of the most admired instruments in Martin’s Standard Series—an iconic dreadnought known for its powerful projection, rich overtones, and refined visual elegance. Its D-14 fret body size delivers a bold, room-filling voice with deep bass, clear trebles, and balanced mids, making it a trusted companion for strummers, flatpickers, and singer-songwriters alike.

Handcrafted with a solid spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, the D-41 produces a resonant, harmonically rich tone that responds beautifully across playing styles. Its genuine mahogany neck features Martin’s Golden Era (GE) Modified Low Oval profile paired with a High-Performance Taper, offering exceptional comfort and smooth playability along its 25.4" scale length.

Elegance is woven into every detail: luxurious abalone hexagon fingerboard inlays, abalone rosette and top trim, antique white binding, a bound ebony fingerboard, and an ebony bridge with bone pins. Gold open-gear tuners complete its timeless aesthetic. The 2025 Standard Series refresh enhances tone and playability with Sitka spruce GE scalloped bracing, a reimagined neck feel, a thinner fingerboard, and subtle refinements to the bridge and heel. A hardshell case is included.
