Featuring all-solid-wood construction, the Martin Road Series SC-10E Modern blends 21st-century acoustic innovation with a decidedly traditional tonewood formula. This Road Series acoustic-electric guitar boasts Martin’s ergonomic S-shaped body, complete with a heel-less neck joint and a Low Profile Velocity neck profile for effortless access to the 16-inch-radius fingerboard’s entire range. As for the tone, this guitar’s solid spruce top and Tone Tension X-bracing sing with a clear, crisp character and superb sensitivity. Next, the solid sapele back and sides offer a warm and enveloping aura, all adding up to an impeccably modernized variation of Martin’s timeless Style 18 sonic signature. What’s more, the SC-10E Modern’s Martin E1 electronics system captures every nuance of the guitar’s complex unplugged tone, and it also comes equipped with tone-shaping controls and an onboard tuner. Finished off with Martin’s forward-thinking bolt-on Sure Align neck system, top-shelf closed-gear tuning machines, and classic Martin aesthetic accouterments, the Martin SC-10E Modern pays tribute to the Nazareth tradition while pushing the boundaries of steel-string design.
