Built-in Martin E1 electronics make the transition from unplugged playing to amplified performance easy, while faux mother-of-pearl Diamonds & Squares inlays, a faux abalone rosette and distinctive Martin block headplate logo give this Special model an elevated look within the X Series. Complete with a softshell case, the D-X2E Brazilian Burst Special combines bold acoustic performance, road-ready practicality and distinctive Martin style in a versatile acoustic-electric. Solid Spruce Dreadnought for Powerful, Articulate Tone The D-X2E Brazilian Burst Special starts with Martin's iconic 14-fret dreadnought body, delivering the projection, strong low end and commanding presence that have made the shape a favorite for generations of players. A solid spruce top provides a clear, dynamic foundation with the headroom to respond naturally to everything from lighter picking to assertive strumming, while scalloped X-bracing enhances resonance and sensitivity across the top. Brazilian rosewood-patterned HPL back and sides provide durable, consistent construction with the dramatic visual character of the prized tonewood, creating a practical complement to the solid spruce soundboard. 25.4" Scale and Performing Artist Neck for Responsive Playability A full 25.4" scale gives the D-X2E Brazilian Burst Special a responsive string feel with the tension and articulation to keep notes clear and defined across its powerful dreadnought voice. The select hardwood neck features Martin's Performing Artist profile for a comfortable, streamlined feel, paired with a hand-applied finish that feels smooth beneath the fretting hand. A 1.75" nut provides comfortable room across the strings, while the select hardwood fingerboard offers a familiar playing surface across all 20 frets for chords, flatpicking and single-note work. Martin E1 Electronics for Stage-Ready Versatility Built-in Martin E1 electronics let the D-X2E Brazilian Burst Special move easily from unplugged sessions to rehearsals, performances and other amplified settings. Discreet soundhole-mounted controls provide convenient access to your amplified sound, while an integrated chromatic tuner makes it easy to check tuning without reaching for an external device. Designed to translate the guitar's clear, powerful acoustic character through a PA or acoustic amplifier, the E1 system adds practical plugged-in versatility while preserving the instrument's clean, traditional appearance. Special Appointments With Distinctive Martin Style A satin Vintage Burst finish gives the solid spruce top a warm, vintage-inspired appearance, complemented by the dramatic Brazilian rosewood pattern of the HPL back and sides. Faux mother-of-pearl Diamonds & Squares Long fingerboard inlays and a single-ring faux abalone rosette add refined visual detail, while a distinctive Martin block logo on the headplate further sets this Special model apart from the wider X Series lineup. A faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, chrome enclosed-gear tuning machines and a select hardwood bridge complete the presentation, with a softshell case included for convenient protection and transport. Elevated X Series Style With Everyday Versatility For players who want the practical, performance-ready character of the X Series with a more distinctive visual identity, the Martin D-X2E Brazilian Burst Special offers a compelling combination of sound, style and versatility. Its solid spruce top and scalloped bracing deliver the projection and responsiveness expected from a Martin dreadnought, while durable HPL construction and built-in E1 electronics make it well suited to regular playing at home, in rehearsal or onstage.
