The Martin D-X2E Billy Strings Signature is a tribute to one of the most exciting flatpickers of our time, offering fans and players an instrument inspired by Billy’s love for vintage Martins, but at a more accessible price point. Designed with his unique specifications in mind, this model features the same custom 25" scale length and nut width as his high-end signature dreadnought, making it easier to play fast, intricate runs while maintaining comfort across the neck. Whether you’re laying down driving bluegrass rhythms or weaving through melodic solo passages, this guitar delivers a tone and feel that encourages expressive playing.

Built with a solid spruce top and durable Brazilian rosewood-patterned HPL back and sides, the D-X2E balances tradition with practicality. The scalloped X-bracing ensures a strong, resonant voice with booming lows and articulate highs, while the hand-applied finish keeps the guitar lightweight and responsive. Classic appointments like a faux tortoise pickguard, diamond-and-squares fingerboard inlays, and nickel open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs tie the guitar visually to Martin’s storied history. Onboard Martin E1 electronics with a built-in tuner ensure that the D-X2E is ready for both stage and studio, delivering an authentic amplified sound with ease.

Each instrument includes a hemp softshell case for eco-friendly protection and features a custom label with Billy Strings’ pre-printed signature and graphic. Whether you’re an aspiring bluegrass player or simply looking for a roadworthy dreadnought with unmistakable Martin character, the D-X2E Billy Strings Signature captures the spirit of Billy’s artistry in a guitar built to inspire.
