Martin X Series OMC-X1E HPL 000 Electro Acoustic In Black

The X series is entry-point into the world of full-size Martin guitars. Featuring a black-finish high-pressure laminate (HPL) body and Fishman MX electronics, the OMC-X1E offers a piece of Martin’s famous craftsmanship at a more affordable price.

OM Body

The OM body shape is a true all-rounder. Unlike larger body shapes like dreadnoughts and jumbos, you get a more balanced sound across the frequencies, so it’s great for a wide range of genres. The OM shape is similar to the 000, however, the OM has a slightly longer scale length as well as wider fingerboard which makes fingerstyle more comfortable. There’s also a cutaway which makes it easier to access those upper frets. Whether you’re fingerpicking or strumming you’ll find the OM responds well to your playing.

Performing Artist Series Neck

Whether you’re recording for hours or plan to play out late into the night, you’ll be glad you got a Martin X Series guitar. The X Series features Martin’s outstanding Performing Artist series necks, whose slimmer profile is easy on your hand, allowing you to play those extended sessions in comfort.

Fishman MX Electronics

This guitar is ready to perform thanks to the built-in Fishman MX electronics. The Fishman MX is a simple plug-in-and-play solution and features a discrete preamp with volume and tone controls mounted on the soundhole. Whether you’re performing live into an amp/PA, or you’re recording into an audio interface, the OMC-X1E is ready to go right out of the box!
