The Martin Road Series SC-13E Modern Burst acoustic/electric guitar is built for players who want traditional Martin tone with a thoroughly modern playing experience. A solid spruce top paired with koa fine veneer back and sides delivers a voice that is balanced, articulate, and rich in harmonic detail, while Martin’s Tone Tension X-bracing enhances projection and clarity across all playing styles. Finished in a striking Modern Burst gloss, this instrument immediately stands out on stage or in the studio, offering both visual presence and sonic depth in one refined design. It also comes with a protective gig bag, making it ready for travel, rehearsal, or the next gig right out of the case.

What sets the SC-13E apart is its player-focused design. The offset SC body shape feels comfortable and responsive against the body, while the Low Profile Velocity neck and high-performance taper create an effortless, fast-playing feel. Martin’s Sure Align neck system gives you improved upper-fret access that feels more like an electric guitar, opening up new creative freedom for lead lines, chord voicings, and expressive fingerstyle work. Paired with the LR Baggs Element pickup system, the SC-13E translates its natural acoustic tone into a clear, dynamic amplified sound that performs beautifully on any stage.

Whether you’re stepping into your first serious performance guitar or upgrading to something more versatile, the SC-13E Modern Burst is designed to meet you there and grow with you. It blends craftsmanship, comfort, and modern electronics into a single instrument that feels familiar yet forward-thinking the moment you pick it up. This model is available now at Haggerty’s Music.
