This acoustic-electric version even features Fishman Mini Q electronics. The Little Martin is durable and easy to play.

Martin LXME Little Martin Acoustic-Electric Guitar (with Gig Bag) Reviews
9 out of 10
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
"Little Martin (small in price, BIG in value)"
Feature:
The gig bag is awesome! I will not only store my guitar in it, but will use it everywhere I go. The "Mini-Q" is great, but if you do not plan to amplify, it really is not needed.
Quality:
This Little Martin is a beast! It weighs more than my full size classical guitar. However, I would prefer it to be heavy and duarable than light and fragile. My fret bars need to be filed. they stick out too far over the fretboard (a bit uncomfortable). Also, my high "E" string is very close to the edge of the fretboard. It takes some getting use to...
Value:
I am very happy with the guitar. Price is an issue for me; so, I have to look for bargains/sales and I believe the Little Martin was a great bargain for what you get.
Desirability:
This Little Martin is appealing - That's for sure! It also makes you want to take it everywhere you go.
Sound:
Well, it is a travel guitar, so I didn't expect the sound to be that great. However, when I plug into the "Mini-Q" my accustic mini-amp really brings out the sound. When unplugged - it is loud enough for me...
Ease of Use:
There was minimal information that came with the guitar. Pretty much "self explanitory."
Support:
N/A
Overall:
Depending on the construction of the guitar, I plan to use it daily for a long, long time... I thought the smal size would be uncomfortable/awkward - I was totally wrong! It is very comfortable and easy to play.

"Beats the Backpacker hands down!"
Feature:
Comes with a nice padded gig bag with back pack style straps built in.
Quality:
Made of composite, should be durable and trouble free. Plus, it's a Martin!
Desirability:
If you are a Martin fan, you have to have it. It looks just like my D-18!
Sound:
Sounds like a full size inexpensive guitar, and has much bedtter sound than the baby Taylor or the Fender.
Support:
I have been a Martin owner for 32 years, they stand behind their products.
Overall:
I bought this guitar to be a beater/travel/take to the beach guitar, because I was a little disappointed with the performance of the Backpacker. So far, I have been totally pleased with it, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a travel or practice guitar.
