<p>The Martin DC-13E Modern blends contemporary style with stage-ready performance. Its gloss Dreadnought cutaway body combines a solid spruce top with koa fine veneer back and sides for clear, balanced tone with shimmering highs and long, even sustain. Scalloped X-bracing boosts volume and responsiveness, while the cutaway gives full access to the upper frets. The Performing Artist neck with high-performance taper delivers fast, comfortable playability, and eye-catching details like white binding, diamond-and-square inlays, and Ratio skeletonized open gear tuners bring a modern twist to a classic look. Equipped with versatile E1 electronics, a built-in tuner, and a softshell case, the DC-13E Modern is a sleek, inspiring tool for creating, gigging, and pushing your sound forward.</p> <p><strong>Features</strong></p> <p><strong>Highlights</strong></p> <ul> <li>D-14 Fret Cutaway body size</li> <li>Koa Fine Veneer back and sides</li> <li>Spruce top with Natural top color</li> <li>PA Profile neck with High-Performance Taper</li> <li>1 3/4'' fingerboard width at nut</li> <li>Softshell case</li> </ul> <p><strong>Top</strong></p> <ul> <li>Top Material : Spruce</li> <li>Finish Top : Gloss</li> <li>Top Color : Natural</li> <li>Top Inlay Material : Multi-Stripe</li> <li>Top Detail : None</li> <li>Binding : White</li> <li>Bridge Material : Ebony</li> <li>Bridge Style : Sloped Modern Belly</li> <li>Bridge String Spacing : 2 5/32"</li> <li>Bridge Pin Material : White Plastic</li> <li>Bridge Pin Dots : Faux Abalone</li> <li>Pickguard : Faux Tortoise</li> <li>Pickguard Inlay : None</li> <li>Rosette : Single Ring Faux Abalone</li> <li>Saddle : White TUSQ</li> <li>Saddle Radius : 16"</li> </ul> <p><strong>Body</strong></p> <ul> <li>Body Size : D-14 Fret Cutaway</li> <li>Construction : Mortise &amp; Tenon Neck Joint</li> <li>Back Material : Koa Fine Veneer</li> <li>Side Material : Koa Fine Veneer</li> <li>Back and Side Finish : Gloss</li> <li>Back and Sides Color : Natural Stain</li> <li>Back Detail : None</li> <li>Side Detail : None</li> <li>Back Purfling/Strip : None</li> <li>Back Inlay Material : None</li> <li>Side Inlay Material : None</li> <li>Bracing Pattern : X-Brace</li> <li>Brace Shape : Scalloped</li> <li>Brace Material : Spruce</li> <li>Brace Size : 5/16"</li> <li>Endpiece : None</li> <li>Endpiece Inlay : None</li> </ul> <p><strong>Neck</strong></p> <ul> <li>Neck Shape : PA Profile</li> <li>Neck Taper : High-Performance Taper</li> <li>Neck Material : Select Hardwood</li> <li>Neck Color : Black</li> <li>Finish Neck : Hand-Applied</li> <li>Scale Length : 25.4"</li> <li>Number of Frets Total : 20</li> <li>Neck Joins Body At : 14th Fret</li> <li>Heelcap : Black</li> <li>Fingerboard Material : Ebony</li> <li>Fingerboard Width at 12th Fret : 2 1/8''</li> <li>Fingerboard Width at Nut : 1 3/4''</li> <li>Fingerboard Inlay Style : Diamonds and Squares Long</li> <li>Fingerboard Inlay Material : Faux Mother-of-Pearl</li> <li>Fingerboard Binding Material : None</li> <li>Side Dots : White</li> </ul> <p><strong>Headstock</strong></p> <ul> <li>Headstock Shape : Solid</li> <li>Headplate Material : Brazilian Rosewood HPL</li> <li>Headplate Logo Style : Script Ink</li> <li>Headplate Binding Material : None</li> <li>Tuning Machines : Ratio Nickel Open Gear</li> <li>Knob : Skeletonized Butterbean</li> <li>Nut Material : White Corian</li> </ul> <p><strong>Misc</strong></p> <ul> <li>Case : Softshell</li> <li>Label : Paper Label</li> <li>Electronics : Yes</li> <li>Electronics Options : Martin E1</li> <li>Left Handed Availability : true</li> <li>Pleked : true</li> </ul> <p><strong>What's Included</strong></p> <p><strong>DC-13E Modern</strong></p> <ul> <li>Road Series, D-14 Fret Cutaway, Acoustic Electric</li> </ul> <p><strong>Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Guitar Strings Phosphor Bronze - Light</strong></p> <ul> <li>Pre-strung on instrument</li> </ul> <p><strong>Softshell Case</strong></p> <ul> <li>Waterproof, Backpack straps, Internal padding protection</li> </ul>
