Martin & Co.® (Martin®) introduced, at the Winter NAMM Show in Anaheim, California, the SC-13E, a new guitar with a brand-new body shape, designed from the ground up to be extremely comfortable and remove the limitations of a conventional cutaway acoustic-electric.

" With the SC-13E, we wanted to create an acoustic guitar with the comfort and playability of an electric."
The thoughtfully designed SC-13E is packed with innovations, including:
"Our product team continues to break the mold and bring new and exciting innovations to life," said C. F. Martin & Company Chairman and CEO Chris Martin.
