Martin Road Series DC-10E Modern Black Acoustic-Electric Guitar *New Model*

Weight: 4.7 lbs 

DESCRIPTION

The Martin DC-10E Modern Black offers a bold, all-black look backed by the tone and feel serious players demand. Its satin Dreadnought cutaway body pairs a solid spruce top with solid sapele back and sides for punchy mids, clear trebles, and low-end power. Scalloped X-bracing enhances projection and clarity, while the cutaway invites you to explore the highest frets with ease. A Performing Artist neck with high-performance taper keeps playability smooth and fast, and blacked-out appointments—including the binding, tuners, and pickguard—add to its stealth appeal. With versatile E1 electronics, a built-in tuner, and a softshell case, the DC-10E Modern Black is built to perform—on stage, in the studio, and anywhere your music takes shape.

INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED

After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.
