## Description

This is the Martin LXK2 Little Martin, a great smaller sized guitar that is perfect for a student or someone who wants to take an instrument with them while traveling.

Review: Best is class travel guitar. Higher than expected quality. - Bought this to replace my Washburn Rover as my beach/campfire/couch guitar. It's a much different animal than the Rover; much more refined sound with bigger body. I compared this with the Baby Taylor. Did not like the feel of the BT's neck. BT also did not seem as well intonated as the Martin. I have also heard that the Taylor tuners were not as good as the Martin. I tried a few whole step bends on both, and the Martin held pitch better. I also compared this to the solid topped Little Martin. I fully expected to prefer the solid topped, but this laminated one sounded much better. Much more balanced with nice note separation. I keep coming back to the intonation with this guitar; it was really good fresh out of the box, even in the higher registers. After tuning it with my Peterson sweetened guitar setting, the sound was amazing. I could go on and on about Peterson Tuners, but thay is a whole other review. Only thing I don't like is the nut has rather sharp corners. I may get it replaced with a bone nut (and bone saddle too). This guitar is a great buy (I got it at two-ninety-nine) as beater, travel guitar. But I find myself reaching for this over my D18 often times, simply because its size make is so convenient. And the decreased sound output make it less likely that I will disturb anyone, or wake any of the kids.
Review: Sweet little guitar - I have been playing the banjo and uke for a couple of years now and I've never really been comfortable holding a full size (acoustic) guitar. I wanted to find a smaller guitar I could play on the couch or porch and bring with me camping, I love to play outside. I researched and asked musician friends of mine and narrowed it down to this Martin, the Baby Taylor and the Ibanez GA2. I was able to play the Taylor and Martin side by side at a local shop and tried the Ibanez model at a Guitar Center a couple of towns over. The taylor was bright and beautiful but I didn't like the action. The Ibanez sounded good but the action was awful and the tuners were very cheap. The martin was just right. While it's not as brassy and clear as the Taylor, the action and overall feel for me is incredible. The tone is beautiful, very rich for a 3/4 scale, especially the lower notes. The volume is more than enough to keep up with my friends when we jam outside and while I haven't been to a large group jam with it yet (it's only been about a week since I bought it) I have no doubt it will do just fine later this summer when I have a sit down with the blue grass boys. If you're thinking about a 3/4 scale but not sure if this will keep up, you're going to be surprised. I'm heading up the river this weekend and the fact that I can carry my deering good times and this for a combined weight of 7 lbs makes it a no brainer. Overall, extremely pleased.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this guitar have a strap button on the bottom like a regular sized guitar?**
A: Hey, yes it does. It has a white button on the end just like a full sized guitar. It also has a strap button on the underside of the neck by the body. That one is a chrome one.

**Q: Is the gig bag strong enough to be checked on a flight? Will the gig bag protect the guitar if it was thrown around by airline workers?**
A: I would never put a gig bag in checked luggage. That would require a hard-sided case, and even then you need some luck.

**Q: Does it come with a guitar strap?**
A: No, it doesn't come with a strap.

**Q: what shape is the neck?**
A: Ukulele neck shape

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great. Buy it.
*by L***O on April 25, 2015*

This is a fabulous little guitar. I bring it with me everywhere - pop it out of the case (it holds its tuning very well) and play it. Friends of mine try it, are impressed with how easily it plays and ask me who I had set it up, and I tell them that's how it came out of the box, because that is how it came out of the box: ready to go. It sounds great - a little small (of course), but it is very balanced and clear - really lovely tone. Well intonated, plays great all over the neck. And rugged - it's basically made out of Pergo flooring material and you can't scratch it. The only downside is it is a little bit head heavy - the head has nice, quality tuners and there is a lot of weight up there. This is a tiny downside, really. If you want a guitar that you can bring everywhere, that is a a delight to play, that seems to call you: "come play with me...." like a Siren, and that you'd have to run over with a car to break, then get this. And... it's a damn Martin for $300! What is there not to love?
