Martin's X Series of acoustic-electric guitars has long served as a 6-string staple for touring musicians for two reasons: their decidedly modern Martin formula and their superb durability. And while the D-X1E Koa exemplifies both those lofty qualities, it introduces a bold new feature into the X Series mix — beautiful printed figured koa patterns on the HPL top, back, and sides that mirror the dashing grain lines of top-tier koa wood. Combined with classic Martin X-bracing, a big-bodied dreadnought construction, and stage-ready Martin E-1 electronics, the D-X1E Koa supplies full-range Martin unplugged warmth in the studio and feedback-resistant acoustic-electric flexibility onstage. You also get an ultra-sturdy birch laminate neck, a composite richlite fingerboard, and rock-solid closed-gear tuners. Boasting classic koa looks and cutting-edge acoustic-electric performance, the Martin D-X1E Koa acoustic-electric is a show stopper of a 6-string with road-ready durability to ensure the show never stops.
HPL body with a bold, new look
The HPL laminate woods compromising the D-X1E Koa’s top, back, and sides guarantee improved durability and resilience, not to mention savory sonic sophistication. Martin’s HPL delivers vibrant sustain and warm bass; it also makes for an acoustic that’s less delicate than pricier options. Traveling with the D-X1E Koa is anxiety-free, and it’s become a popular choice among pros who don’t entertain the thought of taking prized vintage acoustics on the road. Moreover, Martin now adds stunning woodgrain looks that mirror the costly figured tonewood. These designs mark a new high point for the D-X1E Koa’s looks and are meticulously re-created by analyzing solid tonewood specimens that exhibit supreme beauty.
Onboard E1 electronics
Onboard Martin E1 electronics let you quickly connect to your favorite acoustic amp, recording interface, or even house PA systems at venues. Musicians at are impressed with the E1 system’s tone, volume, and phase-reverse controls, which let you faithfully amplify your D-X1E Koa’s richness and warmth while shaping sound quality to taste. The E1’s phase-reverse button is especially convenient for eliminating prickly feedback in tight spaces when standing near your amp is unavoidable! What’s more, the E1 system features a built-in tuner. You can tune up without any cable connections, so tuning breaks onstage and on the couch are equally painless! With onboard electronics this good, you’ll feel confident the D-X1E Koa is equipped for anything.
