Martin Travel Guitars

They certainly have less string tension, so the strings are easier to hold down. Smaller players will definitely find Martin travel guitars easier to play than full sized acoustics. Most larger players should find them easy to play too, with the exception of guitarists with particularly large fingers! A reduced scale length is a feature of travel guitars so the frets are more tightly spaced.

Travel guitars have smaller bodies and shorter necks in order to make them easier to carry around and stash away on vehicle luggage areas. Construction materials can vary from model to model.

All of Martin's travel guitars are made in their own factory in Navojoa, Sonora. This is in Mexico.
