I love my Little Martin. I have the LX1. Got it about four months ago. I
had tried the Baby Taylor but thought the Little Martin sounded better.
I've let others use it at song swaps and people are often amazed at how good
it sounds considering its size. It is still a little guitar.... it does NOT
have the fullness or resonance of my D-18... but it's great for what it is
and is sometimes is the more convenient guitar to grab.

The final test will come in a few months when I actually attempt to travel
with it (which I have not yet done... but that's the reason I got it). Will
be interesting to see if I can sneak it onto Delta and if it will fit easily
enough into the overhead, or if they'll make me check it.

Regards,

Arlene
