"The Martin Special X Series Rosewood Top dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar is a bold evolution of Martin's storied X series. Boasting a hand-rubbed solid spruce top and figured rosewood high-pressure laminate back and sides, this sleek dreadnought pumps out full-bodied tone with striking looks to match. Under the hood, innovative Fishman electronics let you plug in and command a variety of studio and stage settings. A slim, ergonomic neck, and premium nut and saddle keep playability at the fore, whether recording at home or gigging late into the night." -Martin

This guitar is in great shape with little to no wear throughout. There are some tiny nicks on the back of the headstock and the binding near the bottom as pictured. It has a fantastic full-bodied sound. If you're looking for a great picker under the $500 mark, we can't think of a better instrument in the store. Come by and play away!
