Martin D Jr-10E StreetMaster Electro Acoustic Guitar
The Martin D Jr-10E StreetMaster is a part of Martin's Junior Series and is packed full of features designed to aid younger players. It includes elements built for comfort in order to combat the drawbacks a younger player might find with a larger instrument, and particularly a Dreadnaught body.
Despite it being a junior model, there's nothing small about the D Jr-10E's acoustics. In fact, this guitar offers the player a classic Martin tone, big, rich and rumbling. Its tone is full and rich, but at the same time balanced.
The Martin D Jr-10E has been hand-crafted using excellent materials, as is always the way with Martin guitars. It has been completed with a distressed finish and features electronics from Fishman, meaning it's primed for the stage too.
Construction
An all-Sapele build has been chosen for the Martin D Jr-10E StreetMaster, which as it is played develops additional tonal charm. The properties of Sapele offers the mid-range emphasis, with bright, airy trebles and a powerful punch. The D Jr-10E features a hand-rubbed finish allowing even more of the great natural tone to be released. The tone of this responsive Dreadnaught is balanced, consistent and beautifully melodic. It's the world-class tone for which Martin is famed.
Size
A full size Dreadnaught can feel daunting and restrictive to some guitarists due to their large size and playing profile. If that's the case then the Martin D Jr-10E guitar offers a perfect alternative, being a slightly smaller build but still accessing those bigger, fuller tones. Features like the Junior-14 fret body offer the player a comfortable playing experience but not at the expense of control. So whether you're a smaller player, looking for a guitar for a teenager or are simply after a smaller Dreadnaught style guitar, then the D Jr-10E StreetMaster would be an impressive option.
Neck
The neck of the D Jr-10E StreetMaster was specifically designed to offer the player a comfortable yet high-performance feel. Even with smaller hands you can play with complete freedom alongside sensational comfort. Martin are known for their attention to detail and catering to the needs of guitarists. They've developed a number of different profiles and tapers to allow players to find their perfect feel. The Martin high-performance neck taper and performing artist profile give the opportunity to form complicated chords easily, play fast-paced styles, any rhythm or lead technique and whilst in any position. As the D Jr-10E guitar's neck has been designed with junior players and smaller hands in mind, it's easy to make accurate transitions from chord to chord in smooth movements that are comfortable and fluid.
Electronics
The Martin D Jr-10E is equipped with responsive Fishman Sonitone electronics. Unlike many other electro-acoustic pickups, Fishman Sonitone offers an authentic acoustic sound even at higher volumes, meaning live performance will always be everything it should be. With the Fishman electronic system, you'll find the D Jr-10E retains all of its natural acoustic warmth and resonance whilst delivering industry-leading clarity.
