The Martin LX1E Little Martin is a compact acoustic-electric that packs a serious punch for its size. Built with a solid spruce top and mahogany-pattern HPL back and sides, this travel-sized guitar delivers a surprisingly warm, resonant tone with great clarity. Whether you're a young player, frequent traveler, or someone who just loves a small-bodied instrument with big character, the LX1E is up for the task. Its short 23-inch scale and Modified Low Oval neck shape make it especially comfortable for smaller hands and relaxed playing sessions.
Equipped with a Fishman Sonitone pickup system, the LX1E is ready for the stage or studio. The Richlite fingerboard and bridge are durable and eco-friendly, and the guitar’s birch laminate neck provides extra stability for changing environments. With reliable build quality, easy playability, and iconic Martin tone in a portable format, the LX1E is a smart choice for guitarists of all levels.
