2021 Martin Dreadnaught Jr. Guitar w/case

2021 Martin Dreadnaught Jr.-10 Guitar w/case.  The Martin Dreadnought Junior, aka Martin DJr-10, is a fantastic small guitar, perfect as a companion when traveling. Most seasoned guitarists are familiar with Martin’s sizing structure, which most commonly ranges from the small-body 0 to the mighty dreadnought. But what is a Dreadnought Jr.? Introduced as a standard model in 2015, these models use a dreadnought shape body at about ¹⁵/₁₆ size, combined with a short 24-inch scale, creating a compact instrument that’s larger than a typical travel guitar (such as the Martin Mini), but smaller than a standard size guitar.

Martin offers the resulting Dreadnought Jr. models as part of its affordably priced line of instruments built in its secondary factory in Navajo, Mexico (a facility that is celebrating 30 years of operation!). This year, the Dreadnought Jr. has been modified with a slightly shallower body, which now has the same depth as a Martin’s 000. The guitar has scalloped X-bracing, a 14-fret neck joint, and a solid peghead. The guitar’s fingerboard and bridge are made from black Richlite, which is virtually indistinguishable from ebony. Simple dots serve as position markers in the fingerboard, and the guitar has a mother-of-pearl rosette, black body binding, and black and white purfling. The Fishman Sonitone electronics include an under saddle pickup, controls for volume and tone inside the bass-side edge of the sound hole, and a compartment for a nine-volt battery and ¼-inch output jack in the lower bout.

The DJR-10E has a solid Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides.
