Sapele body

The solid Sapele top, back, and sides provide a warm mid-range structure and controlled bass foundation. This sound is ideal for singer-songwriters who want to add a melodic element to their voice. The end result is a sound that seamlessly cuts through Mix without losing depth or character. Meanwhile, the Scalloped Tone Tension X bracing expands the tonal potential to new heights. It allows the soundboard to vibrate more efficiently, resulting in a more lively sound.

Shortened scale length

While the ergonomic S-shape ensures a natural posture for the instrument, the shorter scale length of 632.5 mm contributes to a pleasantly soft string tension. In addition, the Cutaway provides unrestricted access to the high registers, significantly expanding the creative scope. The neck, made of Selected Hardwood in the low profile Velocity shape, fits comfortably in the hand. It allows for dynamic playing and effortless position changes. The ebony fingerboard enhances this playing experience by providing a smooth, direct response and a high level of control.

In-house pickup

In addition to the pure sound pickup, the Martin E-1 pickup system includes a built-in tuner, allowing precise tuning at any time without the need for external devices. The controls are discreetly located in the sound hole, making them easily accessible at all times while not detracting from the guitar's overall appearance. The volume and sound can be quickly and sensitively adjusted, allowing the instrument to respond to a variety of playing situations and acoustic settings. In terms of sound, the system stands out with its authentic and balanced signal transmission. The natural character of the guitar is preserved and amplified in great detail.

Classic design with fine details

The Martin Guitars SC-10E Modern Sapele has a timeless, elegant natural finish that highlights the wood's natural grain. The single-ring rosette creates a subtle visual contrast around the sound hole and adds a sophisticated element to the design. The appearance is completed by the traditional Diamonds and Squares inlays on the fingerboard. They not only provide optimal orientation, but also create stylish highlights that maintain the guitar's overall high quality.
