Description

The X Series brings you tried-and-trusted Martin craftsmanship at an affordable price-point. This particular DX model is a noteworthy addition to the lineup; paying tribute to the late, great Johnny Cash. Finished in a colour fitting for "The Man in Black", the DX features a dreadnought body shape that guarantees excellent projection and maximum versatility.

While its traditional trimmings will appeal to old-school Martin and Cash fans, this DX does have a few modern twists up its sleeve. Constructed from HPL (high-pressure laminate), the Martin DX Johnny Cash has a robust and resonant body. The Performing Artist neck shape is very much suited to contemporary guitarists, with a relatively thin carve that enables articulate playing without hindrance.

If you're a gigging singer-songwriter or simply a player that wants to record easily at home, the Martin DX Johnny Cash comes equipped with Fishman MX electronics that allow you to plug into a PA system or audio interface for direct sound capture.

Acoustic Guitars

Acoustic guitars produce their sound naturally through the vibration of the strings and body, offering a direct and expressive playing experience. They come in a wide range of styles, including steel string and classical designs, each with its own feel and tonal character. Body shape, wood choice, and construction all influence warmth, projection, and balance, making acoustics suitable for everything from gentle fingerstyle to confident strumming. Whether used for songwriting, practice, or performance, acoustic guitars provide a simple, honest connection between the player and the music.

Electro-Acoustic Guitars

Electro-acoustic guitars combine the natural sound and feel of an acoustic guitar with built-in electronics for amplification. Fitted with pickups and preamp controls, they allow you to plug directly into an amp, PA system, or recording setup while retaining an acoustic character. They’re ideal for live performance, rehearsal, and home recording, offering volume control and tonal adjustment without relying solely on microphones. Electro-acoustic guitars suit players who want the warmth and responsiveness of an acoustic instrument with the flexibility to play amplified when needed.
