Just ordered a d10 sitka. Best i can afford and my first Martin. Dream guitar, really.
Just ordered the GPC-11E, it’s my first Martin and I could not be more excited.
Do you still have it? How do you like it 2 years later?
Just bought a D10E and I'm in love!
I threw a set of Grover tuners and a bone saddle and dropped the action. Best acoustic I own. This will satisfy my need until I can get a D-18
Mexicans put a lot of heart into making guitars,or anything else,they take a lot of pride in what they do I have a lot,of guitars by them,I don't care if they make a guitar pick or strings,they put a lot of heart and detail craftsmanship to what they do,have you ever or even got a Alvarez by them,superb sound,I have a baritone by them,the sound is phenomenal,I modified it just a little,..🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💖💘💕💗🧡❤💘💖🙏💞💞🙏💖❤🧡💗💕🧡❤❤💘😍😍🧡💗❤❤😍🧡💘💖💘🥰🤔🤔🤔🥰🥰💘❤🧡💕💘💖💞
I bought the GPC-13E to use in the country band I'm -playing in. The sound , action and comfort of playing is amazing. I have tried a few different Martins over the years but they just didn't give me the "Buy Me " feeling that I got when I played this one. The tuner inside is a great feature. I love it.
Good to see a comment that isn't 3 or 4 years old. I bought a used D11 cutaway and it's fantastic. Great sound and easy to play.
Amazing explanation. Playing and demonstration. Couldn't be more detailed in anyway. Without any prompt hou managed to answer all the possible queries. Thanks a ton for this.
D10E was favorite to my ear. I really appreciate this comparison as this is the line up I am currently considering.
Love mine. It’s a workhorse.
I got to play with a d10e in guitar center. Didnt buy from them cuz theyre arseholes and wanted full price for a floor model with no case, i actually liked it more than the higher end ones. Sounded warmer and played easier. Probably the same reason i prefer mexican strats over american ones. Playability and tone is very personal and it doesnt matter what the instrument costs.. it matters how much it inspires you.
Went in to look at a 000-15, left with a 000-10E... half the price, Pickup, tuner... very happy with it... very comfortable, beautiful rich tone. Simply couldn't justify the €1000 extra for the 15
Missing the 000-12e Koa and the D13 dread. I thought the video was really well done but really wanted to hear that 000-12e.
I take my road series Martin to gigs & on the road while my precious Martin stays home
I have the DRS1 and the DRS2. Road series really is an amazing guitar.
I've played many gigs with my D10e and it always delivers .
I just bought the GPC MARTIN MTX AT Guitar Center,I love its warmness and smoothness I'm gonna drop the strings down some more,I already dropped them down but I need that L shape Allen wrench but I'm still gonna play it until I get that wrench
I like the tone of a dreadnought, the play ability of a cut away, and the look of s gloss top. So I chose the "Special Dreadnought Cutaway" 11e. And I got everything I wanted- amazing sound looks, and performance.
why doesn't the 11e come up on Martins website?
@@josephsullivan7287 Not sure. Try 11 dce
I have the same guitar. Very happy with it.
Nice but you left out the 13 Dreadnoughts, I really wanted to hear those!
Thanks for the demo sir. I think I’ll give one a try. Leaning toward the GPC 11E or GPC 13E.
If you are still deciding, I’d go with the 11E, I love it!
What a great video. I like the d10e. It sounded great. You could really hear the difference in sound. I've got a d18 that is an amazing guitar. If I had the money, I'd get me one of these guitars as well. To me it doesn't matter if the guitar is made in Mexico or in America. All I care about is the sound that I want. I'm totally blind, so the looks of the guitar don't matter to me as much. Thanks again for a great video.
I just walked over 10 miles to get me a Dreadnaught cutaway. Just plucked a Martin and I appreciate the tone.
Strong volume too. At Guitar Center, I went for the 5 year pro package. I'm still trying to about the Gigbag backpack thingy with pretty blue fur inside. I'm to figure out if the material is weather resistant. I believe guitar center gave me a 14 fret version soft shell case backpack thingy. It feels comfortable on my arthritis developing body.
Nicely done. Excellent, smooth playing with a concise explanation.
Terrific overview Corey...love your style man!
I just got a D-12E a little over a month ago. It’s an amazing guitar. I was worried about the electronics but they sound great through a Fishman loudbox mini
Brad T I also got D-12E last week after comparing all the road series. It sounded tighter than D-10e. Love the tuner and gloss finish!
Andy Nice! I love it. I took my chances and bought it on sweetwater without playing the D12e and loved the gloss finish. Hopefully people can look past the richlite fretboard and made in Mexico. Those don’t bother me and I think it sounds better than some of the lower end USA models
I also bought thr d12e and i love it so much. I dont mind the richlite fingerboard because i hear that they dont swell or warp so that may pay off in the long run. Great guitar
The d12 was the best in the Road series for me too. I loved the look of the 13 but the 12 just sounded more like a d18 to me than any other of the Rd series.
Ok...
...So... When I see Corey , and also see that he's breaking down and playing Martins... SMASH that play button... 🤠👍
Niiiice! I like this series a lot!
Very nice comparison - THX !
Thank you 😊
Niiice! Beautiful pieces and cool Riffs😎🤟🏻. Those country lines rock
The d12e road series sounds Closest to a d18 or even d28 that’s any other road series model.
They are all great tho. But that d12 for some reason is just better.
It would be very interesting to throw the SC-13E into the mix. It appears to be the new "top of the heap" in the Road Series.
The SC-13 doesn't sound as big as the others, but it's very much a decent acoustic guitar. Very 000 or OM like.
But it does all that, while Also being a very usable electric guitar as well.
A great hybrid.
Thank you
I love the way you attacked the strings when you strum. It really shows the death of the guitar and I want one of those Mike's you have
cant decide between gpc13e and yamaha fgx5 but im leaning heavily towards the red label yamahas.
Is it just me or does a high-gloss guitar lose its natural Woody tone. It seems like the gloss colors the tone of the wood. I really like the sound of the 000 10e
That's sometimes true, though it's highly dependant on the finish material, thickness, and application.
That's sorta what I heard too, and I just ordered the OOO-10e.
I bought a Martin M36 a little while back and it's high gloss and the tone is phenomenal
Drinking game! Every time Corey says "nomenclature."
very very helpful!
I wanted a guitar to play for just chilling in my living room at night.
So I bought the 10E
Very much love the overall tonality but extremely disappointed in the volume output when finger picking especially noticeable when fretting the high E string.
It's almost inaudible unless I pluck the crap out of it and even then it is still fairly muted.
Maybe a spruce top may have helped?
Does Martin make a guitar in the same body size that is also warm tone but maybe just a bit more punch? Oh and under $1k
Very good video review btw.
Thanks
Did you buy the D-10E or the 000-10E? I'm currently debating between the two...
I talked to a Martin representative asking him the difference between a D10e and my DRS1? He assured me the only difference in the DRS1 and the D10e
is the D10e had a pickup and my DRS1 did not. I play bluegrass and a pickup is unneccesary to begin with,
You owns a drs1 without pickup? Did not know that even existed...
I have an GPC 11E series. Love it. Been playing it in church for about a year and I'm struggling with feedback. The feedback buster turns on the tuner and mutes it. Any suggestions or thoughts is much appreciated 🙏
Nice demo of this series but it isn't really a fair comparison with the 000 series VS the D-10 unless you use the same wood top on both.
What Martin model would the 13 road series be like on the upper end models
love d10e
Great demo video ... but the audio could have been better. What's up with all the tone sweeps and stuff happening in the background. When he says things like "listen to that really jump out on this guitar" it doesn't because it's badly compressed -- but you can tell that it should have. Appreciate the content nonetheless, nice breakdown of the lineup.
Thank you Sam ash .. bought a d-16e from you today
Looks like the 10e is a great guitar for live performances. I just want to hear how it sounds when using the electronics.
Did you buy the 10?
Just curious because I got one last week but was very disappointed in the volume output when playing acoustically.
Maybe I got a bad one?
The tonality is great but I can just barely hear the damn thing.
Especially noticeable when finger picking.
@@neilmartin99 Ned, I bought the D10-E. I love it, and I do a lot of fingerpicking. However, I bought it for my live acoustic act, so I’m invariably playing it through my PA system. The only time I play it without amplification is when I’m at home. In my mind, it’s a great option for a solo acoustic player/singer. I like the electronics, and how I could easily turn it up or down based on whether I’m fingerpicking or strumming a particular song. The included gig bag is perfect for my purposes as well.
@@kevinmoulton2480 The D would be great I imagine in terms of punch because of the obvious body size dif but I intended to use mine as a parlor guitar.
It kinda sucks because I live above a fairly busy street and with the TV on at night it makes it difficult to hear the incredible but mellow tones of the 00010E.
I'm wondering if switching to a brighter string might make a difference?
Maybe 80/20 bronze?
Any input would be appreciated.
I hope that there is a 00015 goes with 24.9'' scale.
I’m interested in hearing the DC-11E.
I can’t find any videos on it.
I see the GPC-11E all over CZcams but no DC-11E.
The electronic system, are their volume and tone adjustments in it?
Corey this comparison video of yours is excellent for me, because I am looking to buy one of these Road Series guitars. I have it narrowed down to the 000 body size - either the 000-13e, the 000-10e, or possibly the 000-12e koa, which you featured in a different video. I’d like to get your opinion - first of all, I play pretty much all fingerstyle. I don’t use a pick at all, just fingertips without the nails, and I’d like to get the one that has the most volume and projection. I know they all sound good in their own way, but which one would you choose if you were doing nothing but fingerstyle, and you wanted to get the most volume out of it, whether you’re using a light touch or digging in as well? Thanks, Corey. Keep up the great videos - you’re a great guitar player too!
I just purchased the 000-10 toady..Only because I have a D2 and a J45..I am returning my Koa GS MINI because its not very finger style friendly .... If you want the best fingerstyle projection I would suggest the D10..
The 10E sounds great in it's overall tonality but severely lacks volume when not unplugged or mic'd up.
It might be ok if you want to play it in your closet.
I also came equipped with a great soft bag
Where Martin really shines is from the standard series and above. For the same money of one of the most expensive Mexican martins you can buy a Gibson j45 studio, all hide glue, all solid wood, full gloss nitrocellulose finish, piezo pickup, compound dovetail, hardcase and built in America.
The J45 is twice the price of the instruments in this video dude
I am having a really hard time finding information on the exact model and specs on a brand new Martin guitar I just picked up on Black Friday sale this year from Guitar Center. On the Martin & Co. website, what I purchased does not seem to be listed. Guitar Center has mine listed as a Martin Special GPC X Series Rosewood Top Grand Performance Accoustic-Electric on their website. On the serial number tag, it's listed as a Cust GPCXE HPL RW/RW. I don't know where Guitar Center is getting Rosewood from, it looks like a Mahogany finish to me, unless they are referring to the fingerboard. I would like to know exactly what I have.
I’ve had a Yamaha FG800 for a couple years now but I’m looking to upgrade. Is this worth it or should I wait to get something better? I’m more of an intermediate guitar player. I can play/fingerpick and sing a decent amount of songs and just want something that plays and feels better than what I currently have
One of these will definitely be a sizeable upgrade to the FG800. The road series are all solid wood guitars which means more sustain and better tone. The only thing I can say is the pickups in these aren’t that great. I have a Martin GPRS1 road series with an LR baggs anthem and it’s my go to guitar for live playing. I actually prefer it over some higher end guitars
琴是弹得真好，琴也是好琴，好想拥有一款马丁全单吉他
bought D10E-02 today
What is the Finnish poly?
Good video but please... why is your voice so loud and the guitar so quiet? I have to keep turning the volume up and down and it's very annoying.
what about the d-15m series? hello
thats a usa made.different series
Hello….that’s not a road series.
Fingerstyle?
Really hard to find any videos hearing them plugged in. The fishman picup has a sound of its own, and 99% of the youtube channels just wanna mic every guitar. Would be great to hear plugged in comparison, thanks.
MARTIN D2XE....excellent tone and great loudness...but the one i bought, the string height is too high and cant take it down much or else its buzzing..and as i stay in Inida, so no authentic Martin repair person i can find here... ALAS...!!!
buy a leveling beam and even out the frets..
@@runnningonempty how do you level out the frets?
@@Christian-oi7sd czcams.com/video/mbShXHx6ejg/video.html&ab_channel=HearGear
I just tried one out and had the same experience. Action was just a little too high for me. It sounds okay, but it just isn't that fun to play.
It also lacks the clarity that these solid-wood models have.
I was apprehensive about the Martin Road Series DRS1 I bought. I wasted my time fretting (no pun intended). No problemos as they'd say in Merxico.
I play bluegrass and took it to a Bg function. Mr DRS1 held it's own against hi end accoustics. Including a Collings D1 guitar. My point? Buy a DRS1. It
isn't a budget buster!!! RS models sound exactly like those in the video.
I got one about 6 months ago. I feel really fortunate to have gotten this guitar. Absolutely love it.
Used to have both a 000RS1 and a 000-15m and both had their charm. The sapele RS1 had a 'sweet shimmery' tone and the 15m had a dry open tone. awesome guitars.
I ended up finding my my drs2 for 400 and my drs1 for 350. They’ve got some marks on them, but they’re great guitars.
I’m very stuck
Have a d10 and a custom eggs and their cheapest Martin is better than anything else out there
I’m having a hard time concentrating on the guitars having to stare at that mustache.
Are these made in Mexico?
Yeah, still made in Mexico.
Even a Mexican made Martin is leaps and bounds better than anything. I don't give a fuck what anyone says.
Mexicans take bbn more pride in the creating of guiars,they really know how to make really good guitars on their own,plus their really good at playing guitar too
@@NunYa953 That just means you havent played a Santa Cruz guitar!
@@mcdee56
Whatever peasant.
Martin made a big mistake when they choose Siris wood for the back and side in the 000-13e.
It looks really nice.
But It sounds the worst.
It doesn’t sound like Martin Guitar, it doesn’t have the warm sound.
Martin should have just sticks with Sapele instead of siris.
My disappointment level 100%.
I agree. I got a d10e and its all sapele wood. Sounds and looks great
@@ROGisLEGIT23 i just ordered my d10e all sapele and I cant wait for it to come in, I played the 000 10e sapele in sam ash and though it felt and sounded great but I wanted a dreadnought shape so I had them order me one from the distribution center, you liking yours a lot?
@@Christian-oi7sd I love mine so much. It feels great, is super easy to play, and it sounds fun great. Its got a great resonance as well. Nice and long and sounds wonderful. Plus the built in tuner and Fishman electronics aound awesome. Got that Martin sound we all know and love
Mines also a dreadnought shape and its comfortable and not too big. Plus the case you get is very good quality
Never buy a guitar without a binging. If they don't care about going the extra mile, they know it's a piece. Also, never buy a guitar thats not made of wood. Laminate is for flooring, not guitars.
Good job but what a 😈😈😈 buzz... my ears bleed bro
Great video great guitars great play AWFUL AUDIO! The audio levels change like crazy! The audio guy is just fired!
People must be crazy to buy these - cheap materials and average sound for a lot of money. Better go to ebay or reverb and buy a used Takamine or Furch/Stonebridge
Maybe I would buy these used but brand new...its too expensive and the price oesnt match the quality, sorry, but true
dude these are all solid materials and sound just like any american martins
They're not made of cheap materials, these sound better than a good amount of high end guitars I've played honestly.
@@bjiggs01 Exactly
WakingCobain,
Fuck the guitars, I want to know more about the shoes...
