The Martin Dreadnought Junior acoustic guitar sports a smaller size than a standard dreadnought for a guitar that's exceedingly comfortable to hold and play, especially for younger guitarists or anyone with a smaller physical frame. The size does not have a sonic compromise, however. The Dreadnought Junior has a solid spruce top for a brighter tonality, and pairs it with sapele back and sides that balance it all out with a rich, deep character for an overall sound that defies the scaled-down natures of the guitar. Beginners, young intermediate players, or anyone looking for a guitar that's easy to travel with should take a good look at the Martin Dreadnought Junior.
