Martin D13E Martin Walnut

Spruce and “Pennsylvania rosewood” walnut combine in the D-13E Retro for strong bass, clarity, and bold projection. Style 28-inspired appointments and modern comfort make it your road to powerful Dreadnought tone and classic Martin style.

The Martin D-13E Retro Walnut brings upgraded tone and timeless style to the Road Series. It features a solid spruce top and solid black walnut back and sides in a gloss finish for rich sustain, strong bass, and clear, balanced tone.

The Dreadnought body and scalloped X-bracing deliver bold projection and dynamic response, while the Performing Artist neck with high-performance taper ensures smooth playability.

Style 28-inspired visual appointments nod to iconic Martin design, and with versatile E1 electronics, a built-in tuner, and a softshell case, this guitar is built for players who know where they’re headed—and need the right tool to take them there.
