Martin LX1 Special Little Martin Acoustic Guitar - White

Big sound and inspiration can come in a small package, and the Martin LX1 Special Little Martin acoustic guitar is proof positive. With its all-white high-pressure laminate construction and compact modified 0-14 body, this Little Martin model is built to travel anywhere without sacrificing tone or playability. Despite its size, the LX1 Special produces a surprisingly full sound that works beautifully for practice, songwriting, recording or casual playing on the go. Gold tuners and a herringbone rosette elevate its stage-ready style, while a 23" scale length and comfortable neck make it easy to play for musicians of all ages. With the LX1 Special, Martin brings legendary craftsmanship to a portable format designed to fit your lifestyle.

Durable HPL Construction With Striking White Finish

Crafted from high-pressure laminate throughout, the LX1 Special is built to handle the demands of travel and daily play. HPL is exceptionally resistant to changes in temperature and humidity, making it the perfect choice for musicians on the move. The clean white finish offers a bold, modern twist on traditional Martin style, while its lightweight build makes it easy to carry between rehearsals, gigs or outdoor sessions. Paired with a softshell case, this guitar delivers both rugged dependability and standout visual appeal, ensuring you’re ready to play in any environment without worrying about wear and tear.

Compact 0-14 Body Style With X-Bracing Delivers Full-Bodied Projection

The modified 0-14 body shape gives the LX1 Special its portable footprint while still producing rich, balanced sound. Its spruce X-bracing—cut in a non-scalloped pattern for stability—helps the HPL top project more resonance than you’d expect from such a small guitar. This design ensures clarity across the tonal spectrum, with crisp highs, warm mids and enough low-end presence to fill out your sound. Whether used for casual couch playing, intimate live sets or songwriting sessions, the LX1 Special delivers a confident, musical voice that far exceeds its modest size.

Slim Neck Profile and Richlite Fingerboard for Enhanced Player Comfort

The LX1 Special’s short 23" scale length and modified low oval neck profile create an inviting, relaxed playing feel. Its narrower 1-11/16" nut width and standard taper allow for quick chord changes and smooth lead runs, accommodating players with smaller hands while still feeling natural for seasoned guitarists. The Richlite fingerboard adds a smooth, consistent surface under the fingers, with a sleek look that complements the guitar’s modern design. Combined, these features ensure that the LX1 Special plays comfortably for hours, whether you’re practicing scales or strumming your favorite songs.

Premium Martin Appointments for Elevated Style and Playability

While built for portability, the LX1 Special doesn’t compromise on thoughtful details. Gold enclosed-gear tuners provide reliable tuning stability with a touch of elegance, while the herringbone rosette adds classic Martin flair against the minimalist white finish. A Richlite bridge supports precise intonation, with a compensated white TUSQ saddle ensuring accurate pitch across all frets. Even the subtle script logo on the white HPL headplate reinforces its premium look. These appointments combine style and function, giving the LX Special the polish of a full-size Martin in a travel-friendly package.
