Get bold dreadnought projection with a warm, focused all-sapele voice in the Martin D-10E Retro Sapele Acoustic-Electric Guitar, available at Irvine Art and Music. Built for players who need strong volume, punchy mids, and a reliable workhorse feel, it’s a great fit for singer-songwriters, worship teams, and strummers who want a no-nonsense Martin that can handle rehearsal and the stage.

This Retro Sapele model uses solid sapele top, back, and sides with scalloped X-bracing for a lively response and room-filling sound. Vintage-style open-gear tuners and a satin finish keep the look classic and understated, while Martin E1 electronics with a built-in tuner make plugging in simple for gigs and recording.
