Overview
Martin took the D12X1AE and reimagined it. The result is the D-X2E 12 String. This Dreadnought sized model has a Sitka spruce top and figured mahogany pattern high-pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides. New mother-of-pearl pattern inlay on the rosette and fingerboard lend a richness to the D-X2E 12 String, making it as impressive to look at as it is to play. A low profile neck, fingerboard and bridge of select hardwood improve upon the sound transfer of this model. It is equipped with Fishman MX electronics and strung with Martin's Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 strings. With a new, soft gig bag featuring headstock, bridge, and endpin protectors, a durable water-repellent exterior and foam padding, this model is ready to go anywhere.

I bought a Martin D-12E last year and I was completely pleased with it. I decided to add a 12-string but my fixed income budget just won't cover a high end guitar right now. I discovered the D-X2E.It's got great tone, was set up well out of the box and easy to play, and the Fishman electronics sound very good to my ears. The price is a steal.
