• Great for practice and travel

  This guitar is just an awesome little instrument. It is durable, compact, versatile and sounds fairly decent. Keep in mind that it is not a full size guitar, so you do sacrifice a little volume and tone. It is surprisingly responsive in the low and high notes, and it has been passable for plugging in during rehearsals. I have not used it for a live performance yet, but I am not opposed to it with my LR Baggs external pre-amp. It is not a full size, high end Martin, so do not expect that tone, but it is my favorite guitar to walk around the house with and practice all day. Maybe it's because the material seems indestructible and my 2 year old can't even scratch it or just because it's so small that I can put it anywhere, but I never let go of this thing. I think my daughter will be able to learn on it when she gets bigger, and I am sure I could do a lot worse for her entry level guitar. Give it a shot if you travel or just for fun. You will enjoy it if you have the right expectations.

  I compared it to Baby Taylor & many other 3/4 bodies. I like the sound alone, but really like it with the AMP. For my needs it perfect, because I can take it on the road and not worry quite as much about temperature changes as I would with non laminates.

• Best little guit you'll find

  I have been looking at this model for a while on-line. I was in a local store the other day and they happened to have one on the wall. I pulled it down and played it for a few minutes. Now, I havent actually played the taylor 3/4 size but my daughter has a hohner 3/4 (which is excellent, by the way) and I have also played a 3/4 squier. I cant speak on behalf of the taylor but the Little Martin was FAR more volumnous in regard to sound than the other two. A really great, full sound comes out of it. The others that I have played or play regularly are good, I mean, really good and fun to play but THIS...This thing is amazing. I have been looking for a carry around guitar. I was thinking about just a plain acoustic full sized but I think this is a strong possibility with the sound quality and all the guitar for small coin. Plus, its travel sized. Cant go wrong.
