At first glance, the new SC-13E looks like the least Martin-ish guitar Martin ever made. But Martin has a knack for coming up with innovations that later become industry standards (things like X-bracing, the OM and the Dreadnought, for example) so when they come up with something new, it’s a good idea to pay attention. Just about every aspect of the SC-13E has been rethought, from the offset body silhouette to the heelless neck design to the X-style back bracing. But newness doesn't matter if the guitar doesn’t deliver and happily the SC-13E is very comfortable to hold, easy to play and it sounds great. Make an appointment to come and check it out. We think you’ll be impressed.
