Martin, the iconic guitar maker, is reimagining tradition with the Jr. Series by combining a compact body with a full 24.9" scale length to deliver a familiar playing experience in a more manageable size. Featuring a classic choice of woods, which pairs a solid spruce top with solid sapele back and sides, the Martin Guitar D Jr E Street Legend delivers a rich, balanced tone. Visually, the StreetMaster's authentic relic finish immediately stands out, capturing the look and feel of a guitar that has been played for decades. Featuring Martin's E-1 pickup system, it is also perfectly equipped to handle live performances.
Equipped with the Martin E-1 pickup system, the Street Legend delivers great sound and stage-ready functionality. Discreetly mounted inside the soundhole, the system features intuitive controls for volume and tone (treble), along with a handy phase switch to help tame feedback in challenging live environments. A built-in tuner allows players to adjust their tuning silently - automatically muting the output for seamless adjustments on stage. In addition, the high-quality satin-finish machine heads ensure excellent tuning stability while also complementing the sunburst finish with visual wear inspired by historic models in the Martin Museum. True to Martin tradition, the Street Legend boasts a full 24.9" scale length and a comfortable 44.5mm nut width, ensuring a familiar feel for experienced players. Premium materials like the ultra-durable TUSQ are used for the nut and saddle, enhancing tone and sustain. Though compact in form, the Street Legend thus definitely stands tall among its full-sized counterparts.
Ideal for life on the go, the Martin Guitar D Jr E Street Legend combines compact dimensions with impressive tonal characteristics and stage-ready performance - proving that great things truly come in small packages. Its smaller size provides comfort without compromising on the sound, ideal for both performances and casual sessions. Thanks to its solid sapele construction and solid spruce top, it delivers a warm midrange and refined treble response - well-suited to both strumming and fingerpicking styles. Whether on stage or on the sofa, the Martin D Jr E Street Legend will perform with both ease and musicality, and its balanced tone makes it a reliable acoustic companion across a wide range of musical settings.
Martin Guitar was founded in 1833 and is thus one of the most long-established brands in the history of the acoustic guitar. Several of Martin’s developments – including the dreadnought shape, robust X-bracing, the placement of the neck-to-body transition at the 14th fret (as opposed to the 12th fret as found on classical guitars), and the use of steel strings – have now become staples of modern guitar construction that countless other manufacturers have since adopted. To put it another way: Music today would sound very different had it not been for C.F. Martin & Co.
The Martin Guitar D Jr E Street Legend will excel across a wide range of settings - on stage, in the studio, at home, or during songwriting sessions. Its smaller body blends the fullness of a dreadnought with the comfort of a parlour guitar, all while retaining a standard scale length for familiar playability. Designed to feel every bit as dependable as it looks, it features a gently bevelled ebony fingerboard paired with a mahogany neck. For added convenience, a matching Softlight case is included to ensure effortless transport and secure storage.
