Default Anyone try the little Martin 00LX1AE?

Looks perfect for the couch and an easy player for plugged in without risking an expensive guitar on gigs. Small body, short scale, 1 3/4 nut, Fishman electronics, good price.

I was able to try one for about 10 minutes. It was kind of noisy in the store, but for what it was, I thought it sounded pretty good. I also played a 000X1AE right after, the 000 sounded better(fuller?) But the 00 was ergonomically better as a couch guitar, it was pretty small but very comfortable, especially with the 1 3/4 nut. I would love to try a OX2MAE as well, but I have never seen one in person.

I have a Martin 000CX1AE, a predecessor with a cut-away. (Which I don't use). I love that guitar, especially after a set-up.

Great size, sound, and price. It may not be the most expensive guitar I have ever owned, but I don't plan on ever selling it. Everybody always wants to play it.
