Description

The Martin SC-10E Modern Sapele takes the revolutionary SC body design and pairs it with the unique voice of all-sapele construction. Like the spruce-topped version—and all other SC models—it features the Sure Align® neck system for total fretboard access and effortless playability, setting it apart from traditional acoustics.

The all-sapele build provides a warm, woody tone with strong mids, airy trebles, and just enough sparkle to add character. Its voice is balanced and versatile, working beautifully for fingerstyle, strumming, or chordal playing. Scalloped X-bracing makes the guitar responsive, ensuring that every nuance is heard.

The Low Profile Velocity neck delivers comfort and speed, appealing to players who want the feel of an electric combined with the resonance of an acoustic. Simple diamond-and-square inlays, a satin finish, and understated details reflect the stripped-down but modern aesthetic.

Equipped with Martin E1 electronics, a built-in tuner, and a softshell case, the SC-10E Modern Sapele combines warmth, balance, and modern playability. Its all-sapele voice adds richness and midrange depth, while the SC body and Sure Align neck system ensure you can explore the entire fretboard comfortably. From the practice room to the stage, it’s designed to support every step of your journey. This is your road to warm tone, versatility, and limitless expression.
