Martin DC-16OGTE Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar
No longer available at zZounds
The Martin DC-16OGTE offers fantastic feel and sound. Featuring a Roland COSM preamp onboard, the Martin DC-16OGTE also sounds great plugged in.
Overview
The Martin DC-16OGTE features all solid tonewoods thanks in part to Martin's ongoing search for beautiful and tonal hardwoods. The top is made from a solid piece of sitka spruce and the sides are solid ovangkol. The back is a 3-piece with solid ovangkol wings and an East Indian rosewood center wedge. The DC-16OGTE is a full-bodied Dreadnought that utilizes a rounded Venetian cutaway providing added access to the upper frets. A beauty to behold, this acoustic has a polished gloss top with satin-finished back and sides.
