Martin DX2E Macassar Burst

We took the DCX1AE MACASSAR and reimagined it. The result is the DC-X2E Macassar. This Dreadnought sized model features a cutaway body with a Sitka spruce top and Macassar pattern high-pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides.

New mother-of-pearl pattern inlay on the rosette and fingerboard lend a richness to the DC-X2E Macassar, 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.
