The D-X2E Brazilian Burst Special is the Brazilian rosewood HPL Dreadnought with a spruce top in satin Vintage Burst. Martin changes the trim as well: long Diamond & Squares inlays in faux mother-of-pearl, a "Martin" block logo on the headstock, a compensated TUSQ saddle in a Modern Belly bridge and chrome tuners. The PA Profile neck with the High-Performance Taper, the 1 3/4" nut, the 25.4" scale and the Martin E1 pickup carry over.
For the natural-top version with Style 28 inlays, look at the D-X2E Brazilian Rosewood. The 000-X2E Brazilian Burst Special puts this look on the smaller 000 body.
