Overview

Martin makes this small-bodied acoustic-electric with a hand-rubbed satin spruce top, an abalone pattern rosette and cocobolo pattern HPL back and sides. Built-in electronics add a chromatic tuner with volume, tone and phase controls.

A small body, a spruce top and durable laminate back and sides make this a guitar that is easy to take along and sounds clear both unplugged and amplified. The limitation is bass: Martin describes it as delicate, so low-end power is not the focus.

Who it's for

Players who favor a compact body and a crisp voice, whether strumming at home or plugging in on stage. Those who want a booming low end should choose a larger body.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Built-in chromatic tuner
  • Softshell case included
Cons
  • Bass is delicate, not booming
  • Laminate back and sides

Performance notes

A small body favors the treble range, which matches the clear and crisp sound Martin lists. Select hardwood in the neck, fingerboard and bridge is said to improve sound and sustain. The electronics let the guitar carry that voice through an amp.
