Martin | 2021 NEW REleases
Martin starts off 2021 strumming with a trio of ukuleles and seven new acoustics!
Designed in collaboration with the legendary English guitarist, the Martin Limited D-35 David Gilmour Natural and D-35 David Gilmour Natural 12-String are the brand's first D-35s built with sinker mahogany necks, backs, and sides, a tonewood Gilmour personally selected for its rich, warm sound and mesmerizing grain. Limited to just 250 units each, each rare D-35 David Gilmour is hand-signed by the artist and supports the David Gilmour Charitable Foundation.
Martin Additions
Martin Road Series
Martin Grand J-16E 12-String
Martin Streetmaster Series
Martin made the Road Series with working musicians in mind. The GPC-13E Grand Performance and D-13E Dreadnought are durable and dazzling, with Sitka spruce tops and fine ziricote veneer backs and sides for traditional tonal balance and luxurious looks. Both come equipped with Fishman MX-T electronics, which features a built-in, auto-muting tuner.
Perfect for seasoned players looking to double down, the Martin Grand J-16E 12-String's new Grand J-14 Fret body size is lovely and loud, constructed with an Indian rosewood back and sides and a Sitka spruce top supported by Martin's scalloped X-bracing pattern, giving it more than enough power to fill any room with sound.
For another kind of working musician, the Martin StreetMaster Series offers potent portability perfect for the studio, stage, or sidewalk. The D Jr-10E features a comfortable thin-profile body, high-performance neck taper, and a distressed finish, making it look and feel worn in from the get-go.

Uke Overload
First, Martin sizes down the StreetMaster Series into a unique uke with an old soul, dressing the T1 Tenor Ukulele's lightweight mahogany body with a similarly distressed finish for a friendly and familiar feel.
Martin's two new concert ukuleles offer additional tonal options. The 0XK Concert Ukulele Koa features a high-pressure laminate body with a beautiful koa veneer, giving your uke a premium pop without the premium price, and the FSC Concert Ukulele features a 100%-FSC certified mahogany body, responsibly sourced for guilt-free grain.
00L Earth Acoustic
The second in an eco-conscious duo, and Martin's final new offering, the 00L Earth is a call to action. Adorned with work by renowned artist Robert Goetzl, Martin's 00L Earth, the world's first 100% FSC®-certified, 100% plastic-free acoustic guitar, reminds us all of the importance of conservation and mitigating the effects of climate change. Each Martin 00L Earth comes equipped with a sustainable hemp gig bag, a Martin first.
