The Martin DX2E X Series mahogany left-handed dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar brings together vintage looks with modern playability. This iconic dreadnought acoustic-electric features the Martin hallmarks you know and love, with some upgraded details to enhance your playing experience. Crafted with a solid spruce top and figured mahogany high-pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides, it pairs the bold projection of a dreadnought with the durability and classic styling of Martin's HPL. The satin-finished spruce top is elegantly appointed with an abalone rosette pattern, while the back and sides are given a rich mahogany HPL finish.

With a Thinner Fingerboard and Beveled Edges for Comfort

The DX2E's fingerboard is slightly thinner than a traditional acoustic, with gently beveled edges to maximize playing comfort. The nut width and string spacing have also been refined, providing a familiar feel for players accustomed to steel-string acoustics. The neck sports a Performing Artist profile that tapers from the headstock to the heel, promoting fluid playability across the fingerboard. The fingerboard itself extends to 20 frets total, with simple dot position markers. This attention to ergonomics makes the DX2E a joy to practice and perform with.

With Onboard Electronics for Plugged-in Versatility

Plug in and amplify your sound with the built-in Martin E-1 electronics. Complete with volume, tone and phase controls, plus a chromatic tuner, the E-1 system gives you flexibility for live gigs or recording direct to a mixing board or audio interface. The undersaddle transducer captures your guitar's natural resonance. The E-1's discreet preamp is mounted just inside the soundhole for quick adjustments on the fly.

With a Contoured Bridge and Refined String Spacing

The DX2E's modernized bridge has a contoured belly for a smooth, comfortable feel during strumming or fingerpicking. The string spacing has also been optimized at 2-5/32", improving playability and reducing buzz. Tuning stability is aided by the Corian nut and compensated Tusq saddle. The slim mahogany neck promotes easy fretting, while the 25.4" scale length provides rich warmth and resonance.

With Classic Martin Style in an Accessible Package

This left-handed model carries the same specifications as its right-handed counterpart, including the iconic Martin dreadnought body with its strong bass response. Between the figured mahogany HPL construction and elegant appointments like the abalone rosette, the DX2E retains the stylish look and feel of classic Martin acoustics. It all comes in an affordable X Series package designed to bring Martin's acclaimed craftsmanship to players at every level.
