00:14The Remastered X Series takes Martin's most affordable line of guitars and makes them better than ever for the modern acoustic songwriter.

00:21Aesthetically, the Remastered X Series features better-looking printed patterns on HBL backs and sides

00:26using tonewood grains scanned from actual pieces of wood from Martin's own wood store.

00:32There's also thinner soundhole rosettes with abalone and herring patterns for a more classic look,

00:37as well as solid wood necks and fingerboards for a more traditional vibe in hand.

00:42But besides the enhanced looks, playability is really where the Remastered X Series shines.

00:47Aiming for top-tier comfort, these guitars feature evolved string spacing, thinner necks with beveled edges,

00:54and angled bridges for a more playable string tension across the length of the fretboard.

00:58The Series X2 models also feature satin-finished spruce tops for a premium feel, as well as select hardwood necks and fingerboards.

01:14There's also a chromatic tuner discreetly placed inside the soundhole so you can make sure you're always in tune.

01:20While perfect for hobbyist acoustic guitarists, the Remastered X Series is very much geared towards gigging players too,
