Withdrawal termsDescription
The LX1RE’s modified O-body is exceptionally comfortable and easy to handle, and when combined with a shorter 584 mm scale length (61 mm shorter than a full-size western guitar), it creates a guitar that is designed for life on the go and is also well suited to musicians with small hands who find full-size guitars difficult to handle.With a solid spruce top and mahogany HPL back and sides, the LX1RE delivers a rich Martin tone in a guitar that is approximately 14 cm shorter than a standard dreadnought western guitar. One of the appealing features of the Little Martin LX1RE is that Martin has built it from materials that are environmentally sustainable, durable, and capable of delivering a traditional Martin acoustic tone! The bridge and fretboard are made from FSC Richlite, a long-lasting composite material that offers a distinctive Martin tone while remaining highly resistant to changes in temperature and humidity. The choice of rosewood HPL for the back and sides gives the LX1RE a warm tone, and HPL is also far less prone to drying out and cracking compared to many solid woods. This makes the LX1RE the perfect choice for musicians who travel frequently or live in challenging climates.
Martin did not manufacture the microphone system itself, but instead turned to Fishman, the leading manufacturer of microphone systems for stringed instruments. The Martin LX1RE is equipped with a Fishman Sonicore pickup, which together produces a realistic and pleasant amplified sound. The pickup is controlled by a volume and tone control discreetly located in the soundhole.
