Short Scale ‘Little’ Martin Delivers Premium Playability and a Big Sound

In stock today The left handed Martin LX1EL ‘Little’ Martin short scale acoustic guitar is the smallest guitar that Martin makes, but that doesn’t mean that it has a small sound. This ‘little’ Martin still delivers the tone you would expect from a Martin, in a short scale size that is extremely comfortable for use as a travel acoustic or student guitar. Made with Certified Sustainable wood components, this little Martin will sound great whether you are touring, sitting on your couch, or hanging around the campfire.

This lefty Martin LX1E acoustic features a solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany high-pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides, and a warm satin finish that is extremely comfortable. Sporting a 23“ short scale modified low oval neck made from Rust Birch Laminate, with a Richlite fretboard, the lefty LX1E little Martin feels incredibly comfortable in the hand, and delivers the silky playability you would expect from a full size Martin at a scale that is perfect for travel or student guitarists.

Other premium appointments include a Fishman Sonitone preamp system with active EQ and built-in tuner, Certified Richlite bridge, compensated White Tusq saddle, and Chrome Enclosed Gear tuning machines for accurate intonation and excellent tuning stability.
