The First X-Series with a 1941 Neck? Martin Molly Tuttle Signature Review

The entire staff at The Acoustic Shoppe is taking over the studio for this episode of "Everyone Plays!" We are diving into two of the most anticipated signatures from the 2026 NAMM show: the Martin D-18 Molly Tuttle and the D-X2E Molly Tuttle.

Inspired by Molly’s legendary 1943 D-18, these guitars were built for one thing: high-speed, precision flatpicking. What makes these unique? For the first time ever in the X-Series, Martin has included the Authentic 1941 Neck Profile and a narrow 1 11/16" nut width—Molly’s personal preference for speed and comfort. We’ll also be looking at the custom "Moon Phase" fingerboard inlays and the stunning Vintage Sunburst finish that give these guitars their signature "Wayfaring Stranger" look.
