The little Martin Acoustic Guitar known as the Martin LX1 is more than the average 3/4 scale length, travel size acoustic guitars. The little Martin Acoustic has a tone quality that provides a live sound that rivals the baby Taylor. For a cheaper alternative that doesn’t have a cheap sound, consider checking out our Epiphone DR100 review.

As a great travel guitar built at 3/4 size, the Martin LX1 Little Martin offers children, travelers and players with small hands an opportunity to get a sweet little Martin guitar at an affordable price. Though the guitar in this Jasmine S35 review is bigger than the Little Martin, it’s an even cheaper alternative if you’re concerned about budget.
Realizing that this guitar is not comparable to the Martin dreadnought and classical guitars that cost quite a bit more, I find the Martin LX1 Little Martin to be an ideal guitar for the serious traveling troubadour. The tone is nice for a little guitar that fits with the Martin standards. For an even more travel-friendly Martin guitar, the model we feature in our Martin Backpacker Guitar review has a unique, slim shape to it.
