Product Description

Martin is proud to introduce the new Little Martin. Like its predecessors, this latest addition to the Martin line is built with the same Martin quality craftsmanship, with an emphasis on producing great sound in a smaller guitar. The Little Martin is durable and easy to play. It is the perfect pick-up-and-play guitar that lets you jam at home or on the road and is the perfect choice for students. Your Little Martin comes with a padded gig bag made of a tough ballistic cloth exterior, plush interior, backpack straps and a front zipper compartment.

The Little Martin is part of Martin's X Series. Martin Guitar has long recognized the serious nature of the earth's dwindling resources and has focused attention on alternative materials. Martin is committed to making Martin guitars that are within reach of every aspiring guitarist. The breakthrough X Series features guitars that are constructed with a combination of highly compressed wood fibers (high-pressure laminate, called HPL) and traditional tonewoods. Martin has crafted ways to build traditional Martin shapes with HPL that yield incredibly long-lasting, affordable guitars. What's more, they've figured out how to not break your bank while still giving you the famous Martin sound!
