Designed for musicians who demand the comfort and access of an electric with the voice of an acoustic, the Martin SC-13E Special revolutionizes performance versatility. Whether you're navigating melodic leads or switching styles mid-set, this innovative guitar is engineered to support your musical expression at every turn. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, the SC-13E Special offers a stage-ready combination of cutting-edge design and stunning tonewoods that set it apart from the traditional acoustic crowd.
This model features Martin’s Sure Align® linear dovetail neck joint, allowing for full access to the upper frets without compromise. Its low-profile velocity neck barrel with a high-performance taper provides a smooth, ergonomic feel from nut to heel—perfect for extended sessions and fast movement up the neck. The body is constructed with a spruce gloss top and ziricote fine veneer back and sides, topped off with a sunburst finish that elevates its elegant appearance. Tonal response is enhanced by the Tone Tension X bracing, delivering balanced resonance with crisp clarity and punch.
Aesthetically and sonically expressive, the SC-13E Special is fitted with LR Baggs Element electronics for a faithful amplified tone, and premium appointments like an ebony fingerboard and bridge, nickel open-gear tuners with skeleton key knobs, and a striking aperture rosette complete the instrument’s standout appeal. A soft-shell gig bag is included for convenient protection on the go.
