Presentation
Looking for a guitar that combines elegance and character without falling into cliché? The Martin DE Retro Plus Mahogany, with its dreadnought silhouette and Aging Toner color, offers a refined aesthetic that is not ostentatious. Its steamed spruce top, carefully selected and heat-treated, produces a warm and balanced sound. And because a detail can make all the difference, its tortoise pickguard adds a perfectly measured vintage touch. A guitar that, like you, knows how to combine style and substance.
Crafted with a know-how that would make the most meticulous luthiers blush, this Martin combines solid mahogany sides and back for a powerful sound projection and deep bass. The mortise and tenon neck assembly guarantees robustness and longevity, while the satin finish of the neck facilitates smooth playing, even after hours of tuning. A guitar designed for those who like to play for a long time without compromising on comfort.
The DE Retro Plus Mahogany isn’t just a guitar; it’s a gigging partner that’s ready for any stage. With its Martin E1 preamp, its simple, precise adjustments allow you to tailor your sound live without fiddling with cables or gadgets. And who doesn’t love a built-in tuner to avoid wasting time strumming away? Add to that its open butterbean tuners and phosphor bronze strings, and you’ve got an instrument ready to take on any musical challenge.
And the gig bag? Oh yeah, it’s there, because Martin doesn’t do things by halves. This guitar arrives ready to travel with you, whether you’re heading to a gig or just jamming with friends. With such a well-built build, all that’s left to do is decide which song you’re going to play first.
