Hey, this is Sam with Guitar.com and in this video, we'll be taking a look at Martin's Remastered X Series.
00:05
So, let's check it out!
00:14
The Remastered X Series takes Martin's most affordable line of guitars and makes them better than ever for the modern acoustic songwriter.
00:21
Aesthetically, the Remastered X Series features better-looking printed patterns on HBL backs and sides
00:26
using tonewood grains scanned from actual pieces of wood from Martin's own wood store.
00:32
There's also thinner soundhole rosettes with abalone and herring patterns for a more classic look,
00:37
as well as solid wood necks and fingerboards for a more traditional vibe in hand.
00:42
But besides the enhanced looks, playability is really where the Remastered X Series shines.
00:47
Aiming for top-tier comfort, these guitars feature evolved string spacing, thinner necks with beveled edges,
00:54
and angled bridges for a more playable string tension across the length of the fretboard.
00:58
The Series X2 models also feature satin-finished spruce tops for a premium feel, as well as select hardwood necks and fingerboards.
01:07
And if you're looking to plug in, these guitars also boast Martin E1 electronics for superior plugged-in tone.
01:14
There's also a chromatic tuner discreetly placed inside the soundhole so you can make sure you're always in tune.
01:20
While perfect for hobbyist acoustic guitarists, the Remastered X Series is very much geared towards gigging players too,
01:26
with each guitar also coming with a quality soft-shell gig bag to keep it safe on the move,
01:31
whether you're taking it to an open mic or recording session, or even busking outdoors.
01:35
The Remastered X Series offers guitarists of all skill levels that classic Martin vibe and trusted quality at a more affordable price point.
