Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Martin’s X Series Brazilian HPL model pairs a solid spruce top with Brazilian rosewood-pattern high-pressure laminate back and sides in a D-14 fret cutaway body. The description presents it as a 12-string acoustic-electric, with Martin E-1 electronics providing onboard volume, tone, and phase controls for amplified use. A comfort-edge fingerboard and refined string spacing are positioned to make chord changes and single-note work easier. It includes a soft shell case. Note that the supplied specifications separately list six strings, so confirm the string configuration before ordering.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Amplified acoustic playing that needs onboard volume, tone, and phase adjustments from the guitar.
- Players seeking a dreadnought-style cutaway body with a comfort-edge fingerboard for chord and single-note work.
