The Martin Road Series SC-13E Modern Acoustic/Electric Guitar is built for players who want a modern acoustic experience that feels as smooth and fast as an electric, without sacrificing the rich, expressive tone Martin is known for. At its core is a solid spruce top paired with koa fine veneer back and sides, creating a voice that is balanced, clear, and responsive whether you’re fingerpicking delicate passages or driving full, dynamic strumming patterns. The innovative asymmetrical SC body shape and Tone Tension X-bracing enhance projection and clarity, while the Low Profile Velocity neck and Sure Align neck system provide effortless access all the way up the fretboard.

What truly sets the SC-13E Modern apart is its focus on playability and performance. The design removes traditional barriers of the acoustic guitar, offering a sleek, contoured feel that encourages longer playing sessions and more expressive lead work. The LR Baggs Element electronics system ensures that what you hear unplugged translates beautifully on stage, delivering a natural, articulate amplified tone that stays true to the guitar’s acoustic character. From studio work to live performance, this instrument is built to adapt, inspire, and keep up with modern players who demand versatility without compromise.

Whether you’re stepping into more advanced performance territory or simply want a guitar that keeps up with your creativity, the SC-13E Modern delivers a refined, forward-thinking playing experience wrapped in classic Martin craftsmanship. It includes a protective gig bag for easy transport and peace of mind on the road. The Martin Road Series SC-13E Modern Acoustic/Electric Guitar with Gig Bag is available at Haggerty’s Music, where players can experience its comfort, tone, and innovation firsthand.
