Martin DC Aura GT Dreadnought – USA 2019

Here is a Martin DC-Aura GT dreadnought cutaway acoustic-electric guitar, a premium stage-ready instrument that blends traditional Martin acoustic craftsmanship with advanced onboard electronics for maximum versatility. Built with a solid Sitka spruce top and East Indian rosewood back and sides, it delivers a rich, full-bodied voice with strong low-end warmth, clear and articulate highs, and a responsive dynamic range suited to both strumming and fingerstyle playing.

The cutaway dreadnought design provides excellent upper-fret access while maintaining the power and projection associated with Martin’s larger-bodied acoustics. The tone is enhanced by the pairing of spruce and rosewood, giving a balance of brightness, depth, and harmonic complexity that develops further with playing time.

The neck is crafted from select hardwood with a certified African blackwood fingerboard, offering a smooth, precise playing feel with excellent sustain and note definition. Hexagon pearl inlays stand out against the dark fingerboard, adding a refined visual contrast, while a double-ring pearl rosette enhances the aesthetic detail around the soundhole. The skeleton-style nickel ratio tuners with decorative buttons complete the instrument’s modern yet elegant appearance.

A standout feature of the DC-Aura GT is the Fishman F1 Aura+ preamp system, designed specifically for Martin. This advanced system uses digital imaging technology to replicate the sound of high-end studio microphones, offering a selection of tonal “Images” that can be blended with the onboard pickup signal. Each preset is editable and allows for precise tone shaping, giving players full control over their amplified sound.
