Martinez Guitars Hispania Sunburst + Gigbag

An Hispania oriented towards amplified playing and modernity

The MARTINEZ Hispania Sunburst positions itself as a guitar designed for musicians who prioritize sound control once plugged in. Its chambered body and hybrid lutherie provide comfort while offering an ideal platform for amplification, recording, and headphone work thanks to its integrated electronics.

For whom, and in which styles?

This guitar is aimed at beginner to intermediate guitarists seeking an easy-to-handle instrument, as well as stage/home musicians looking for a discreet and controllable solution (headphone jack, onboard controls). It is particularly suitable for repertoires where precision is essential: pop, variety, accompaniment, fingerstyle playing, arrangements, and any situation where quick alternation between dynamics and output levels is required.

The sound

The combination of a flamed maple top and mahogany offers an interesting balance: maple favors attack and clarity, while mahogany adds warmth and a rounder response. The rosewood fingerboard and bridge contribute to a rather balanced output, with a smooth feel under the fingers. When plugged in, the piezo pickup highlights definition and articulation, while the body microphone adds air and a more natural grain. The 3-band EQ and level controls allow quick adjustment of presence, bass, and brightness depending on the amp, PA, or recording setup.
