The Martin Guitars D13E-01 Road Series Ziricote Fine Veneer dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar features a solid Sitka spruce top and ziricote back and sides for a stunning appearance and articulate tone. This guitar is ready to take the stage or studio thanks to onboard Fishman electronics. The classic Martin dreadnought shape provides a rich, resonant voice and familiar feel for players of all levels.

Striking Tonewoods and Details

One look at the D13E-01 Ziricote tells you this is no ordinary dreadnought. Exotic ziricote, with its variegated grain and warm hues, adorns the back and sides for an upscale appearance. Tortoiseshell binding, rosette and fingerboard inlays complete the luxurious look. A solid Sitka spruce top provides a balanced tone with crisp articulation and good projection.

Plug in and Play With Fishman Electronics

When you're ready to perform, the Fishman MX-T pickup system has you covered. An onboard tuner located in the soundhole provides discreet tuning and volume, tone and body blend controls allow you to shape your amplified tone. The MX-T system captures the natural acoustic voice of this guitar and gives you the flexibility for any live playing situation.

Iconic Shape and Sound

The dreadnought shape pioneered by Martin provides a familiar feel and classic acoustic tone. Warm yet balanced, with punchy midrange and rounded lows, the dreadnought sound works for any musical genre. The D13E-01 Ziricote's solid construction and premium tonewoods give it a rich, resonant voice with excellent projection.

Premium Playability

A modified low oval neck profile offers comfortable playability, while a 16" fretboard radius and 1 3⁄4" nut width provide a familiar feel for most players. Scalloped X bracing optimizes resonance and sustain. With its bold tone, elegant appointments and plugged-in capabilities, the D13E-01 Ziricote is a professional-grade acoustic-electric ready for a lifetime of music making.

    The intonation is off bad. I've had 3 Martin's and they have all been nothing but problems. The guitar is pretty I'll give it that but it is hard to tune and won't hold tune. Would I recommend this guitar? Absolutely not. Try a taylor gibson or epiphone inspired by gibson. I have a inspired by gibson epi hummingbird. Much better guitar.

  • Nice build but....

    Had to sack the 13's, too thick for me. Installed custom lights, plays easy after a little saddle work. It has medium volume. Bright but not too bright. Pickup is very good, turner works perfect. It deserves a case, which I just happened to have. Bought it at local GC. Rating is for what it is.

    I put light gauge strings on this guitar and it plays beautifully with no buzz at all. The pickup is well matched to this guitar. The D13e Ziricote looks terrific too.

  • Returned because it needed a neck reset

    Arrived with scratches (that was expected, bought open box level 3), strings were rusted (low E string was literally black), the action was really uncomfortable. I took it to guitar center, the tech said it would need a neck reset, likely from sitting in improper humidity/ temperature tuned up for too long. The instrument sounded beautiful. Sad I needed to return it, because the neck reset would have put it over the price new.

  • I would buy this again.

    If you're looking for that great Martin sound in an affordable dreadnought - this is your new guitar! The tone is deep and rich. The fretboard is easy to maneuver and the action is nice and low. The ziricote look is gorgeous and it has an all gloss finish!
