1. Improved aesthetics
The remastered X series features a host of visual improvements, including better-looking printed patterns on HPL backs and sides, using classic tonewood grains scanned from actual pieces of wood from Martin’s own wood store. That means you can get the solid wood look at a fraction of the cost.
The series also features thinner soundhole rosettes with abalone or herring patterns for a more classic look, and solid wood necks for a more traditional vibe in hand.
2. Upgraded playability
Elsewhere, Martin’s remastered X series guitars boast evolved string spacing, meaning a more comfortable and intuitive playing experience. They also feature thinner necks with bevelled fingerboard edges for a premium feel, while angled bridges optimise the string tension across the length of the neck. The series also features Martin’s E1 electronics for superior plugged in tone, should you be so inclined.
3. Premium materials
And finally, the remastered X series is loaded with premium materials to make your playing experience that much better. The series’ X2 models feature spruce tops with a satin finish for a high-end feel, as well as fingerboards, bridges and necks made of real solid woods. And to cap things off, each guitar in the remastered X series comes with a quality soft-shell gig bag, designed to keep it safe in transit to any open-mic, busking gig or studio session.
