Default NGD! Martin Jr

I hate buying online, but I couldn’t resist the price for this new Martin. Just received it today and it’s perfect, great action so no setup required. Hopefully we are slow today at the fire station and I can play all day.

Ya done good!

I looked at the Martin website and it looks like the all sapelle Djr is no longer available.

Enjoy your classic!

Congrats! That’s a great guitar to own and its tone is awesome too!

I own the Dr Jr. 2 also and really like it. Sapele is an under-rated tone wood.

Have fun playing your guitar!

Good choice, sir.

Yours is identical to mine, and I adore it.

May your day at the station be slow, with ample time to get acquainted with it!

Thanks for all the responses, I had plenty of time yesterday to get familiar with my new guitar. I absolutely love it. Not as small as my Mini, but not a full size dread either. The sound is spot on, especially the lows. I was worried about the larger nut because I’m use to 1 11/16 nuts, but I think I like it better. If I had to choose between the two right now I think I would keep the Martin. But I don’t have to so I’ll keep them both.
