Martin 000JR-10E StreetMaster Acoustic-Electric Guitar Dark Mahogany

Easily the best guitar I have ever owned. I've had this for over a year now and play it literally several times a day Being an older man now I have some of the issues that so often go with age Arthritis in my hand particularly my thumbs as well as in my shoulders so a smaller shorter guitar was necessary. From this time I first played it at the store until now I have loved its sound and playability its sounds better than my other larger guitars and plays so easily just love this guitar can not say enough good things about it I use it in church most Sunday's, funerals, played it at a wedding, in Nursing homes so versatile plugged in our acoustic it sounds beautiful smooth balanced sound without any harsh shrillness in the highs just a beautiful instrument and not only in sound but in the way it looks When I set out to make a purchase I played several other guitars that where of similar size and none of them to me came close to the sound quality, playability or looks of this guitar I've had it for a little over a year to this point no issues and I haven't even needed to do a string change (I play every day for an hour or more) and it still sounds beautiful never had strings that lasted sounding great for this long Like I say I absolutely love this guitar to me its easily the best of its type and kind woulld highly highly recommend !!!!

love this guitar easy to play and sounds awesome not tinny at all chose it over gs mini i played both at gc

This guitar is amazing! I already have a Martin Special Road Series and was in love with it for years, but I have arthritis in my shoulder and hands and the dreadnought size was becoming more uncomfortable to play for long periods of time. I impulsively bought this guitar and the smaller body does wonders for my shoulder. It's very easy to play and has a beautiful, rich sound. It compliments my fingerpicking style perfectly. The small size makes it's easier to travel with and way more comfortable for people to play especially with smaller statures or similar arthritic problems. It has very quick action and the projection doesn't take much of a hit with the smaller body at all. Overall, I'm extremely impressed and ecstatic I found a guitar that works physically better for me. I truly can't say enough about Martin guitars. The quality and craftsmanship is there whether is made in Mexico or the US. My only side note is that Martin ships their guitars without the bottom guitar strap button to prevent cracking/damage and my experience with guitar center (at least this one in North Charleston) in particular is that they will not set it back up unless you ask. Or if you want to attach it yourself, make sure you get that piece with it when you get your guitar.

I like the sound and it's pretty good

My journey for finding the right guitar me began a month ago. After visiting many music stores and testing dozens of acoustics within all price ranges - I finally found the one! The wide neck was a must for me as I find them easier for chord grabbing. The feel of the guitar and the warm tones are just beutiful. The technician lowered the action a bit during the set up and in the end - perfection!

This guitar has a look I love, it shines and is even in appearance all over, Its size makes it easier to carry around the house, I did not realize it was a Mexico built guitar, but it's sound says it all, it has a solid ring which projects very well, I think it's sound is unique due to the body being totally made of sapele wood. I nicknamed my guitar MJ for short, it's a star for me, my favorite to take along camping.
