Martin LXM Little Martin Guitar Features:

  • Spruce Pattern HPL (High Pressure Laminate)
  • Textured finish top 
  • Mahogany Pattern

The Martin LXM is a better option for the traveling guitarist that doesn’t want to sacrifice town for say the convenient design of the Martin Steel String Backpacker.

The Spruce and Mahogany solid wood structure bring a warm tone that is bluesy if not rocking and much bigger than the size would suggest.

This is a great option for a traveling professional and it’d even say it’s a great option for beginners and young musicians.  The smaller size and strong design make it an affordable Martin option that is easier to play and sounds great. If you’re a professional and want a more pro-focused guitar, the one we feature in our Martin D15M review can be another good option.

PROS
  • Great tone for a guitar this size, very impressive
  • It's a cool guitar regardless of the size. Martin did a good job with this one
CONS
  • This guitar can take some wear and tear, but eventually it can get the best of the instrument if you are really running it around all the time
