About Martin Guitars
The Martin Guitar Company has, through the years, managed to survive with each succeeding generation from C. F. Martin, Sr.'s Stauffer influenced creations of the 1830s to recent developments introduced by C. F. Martin IV. Continuous operation under family management is a feat bordering on the remarkable, reflecting six generations of dedication to the guitarmaker's craft. In or out of the music industry, C. F. Martin has few rivals for sheer staying power.
Throughout its colorful history, the company has adapted successfully to continual changes in product design, distribution systems, and manufacturing methods. In spite of the many changes, C. F. Martin has never veered away from its initial commitment to quality. The concern for producing the finest instruments possible in 1833 is especially in evidence today at Martin's expanded facility in Nazareth, Pennsylvania.

| Electronics & Martin Customer Service Lacking |
| Quality |
| Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? |
| The Little Martin guitar seems to be structurally well made; however, none of the electronics in the guitar I ordered worked (including the input jack). The guitar also seemed to have a tuning issue. |
|
| Reliability |
| How has it stood up over time? |
| I cannot speak to how the Little Martin would hold up over time because the one I purchased was inoperable upon receipt. |
|
| General |
| Your general opinion of this product. |
| I love the sound and feel of the Little Martin, but am extremely disappointed in Martin's level of customer service. The Martin repair facilities were weeks out on repairing my "new" guitar that I received for Christmas and the Martin factory was over 10 weeks out on repairing it. Upon calling Fishman, the makers of the electronics, they told me to take it to my local music tech and pay to have the electronics removed to send back to them. Once the defective electronics were received by Fishman, they would send out replacements and I could pay to have them reinstalled. I was even told by the Martin factory that the high-end guitar took priority over my "new" purchase. Thank goodness AMS has a return and refund policy! I will never purchase a Martin again. |
|
| Playability and Feel |
| How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? |
| The guitar was very solid. From an acoustic standpoint it was enjoyable to play; however, I could not test the acoustic electric capabilities. |
|
| Tone |
| Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? |
| From an acoustic standpoint, the Little Martin sounded as good as my full-size. |
|
| Finish |
| How did the stain or paint job look? |
| I loved the look of the Little Martin. |
|
| Action |
| How was the action out of the box? |
| The guitar needed to be set-up |
