Martin: Dreadnought Jr

A new entry in the Martin fold for 2015- the Dreadnought Jr. It's a shrunk down version of the manufacturer's D model, featuring a solid spruce top & and all solid sapele back & sides. I've been avoiding the travel-sized Martins all along for a simple reason- there's too much compromise in terms of wood but this looks to be a good consideration. The idea isn't new though, dimensions that sit between a travel & standard-size model, it's done by Taylor- the GS mini. Looking forward to this one, definitely.
