Martin D-13E Retro - Walnut

Get ready to shake up your acoustic sessions with a legendary vibe built squarely for the modern stage! The Martin D-13E Retro Walnut is an absolute cannon of a dreadnought that effortlessly channels Martin's historic heritage while introducing some seriously cool tonewood magic. Anchored by a solid Spruce top with a beautiful aging toner, this guitar brings a punchy, clear-as-a-bell high end that ensures every single note rings out with pristine articulation and immediate velocity.

But the real star of the show here is the solid Black Walnut back and sides. Affectionately dubbed “Pennsylvania rosewood” by the folks at Martin, black walnut serves up a gorgeous acoustic sweet spot. It treats your ears to the rich, deep bass and harmonic complexity you’d expect from premium rosewood, but sprinkles in a healthy dose of that clean, snappy midrange punch usually found in mahogany. Combined with a traditional dreadnought body shape and scalloped X-bracing, this guitar blooms beautifully, offering a full-bodied, room-filling voice that handles everything from delicate fingerstyle to aggressive strumming with superb headroom.

Martin dreadnoughts have famously shaped the landscape of modern music in the hands of icons like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Paul McCartney. The D-13E Retro keeps that legendary spirit alive while treating you to effortless modern playability. Thanks to the ultra-comfortable Performing Artist neck profile and High-Performance Taper, flying up and down the sleek ebony fretboard feels completely natural. Complete with stage-ready Martin E1 electronics and a built-in tuner, this gorgeous instrument is the ultimate tool for players who know exactly where their musical journey is headed.
