Nice Portable Guitar for the Price
This guitar really is perfect for camping or anything venue where you don't want to lug an expensive full-sized guitar. For the money it's a good deal and has a nice tune. You do need to position the body under the arm or use a strap to get the guitar in a good position for proper playing. It is not designed to rest on your leg while sitting.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I Wanted To Like It
I really wanted to like this. I'm a huge Martin fan. From the time I cut the tape of the box open until the time I resealed it was about an hour. It feels/sounds like a 3rd grade band instrument. Nothing that resembles a guitar. I didn't have high expectations, but this didn't even register on the radar. If you put a dozen nails on a 2x4 and tie fishing line between them, you're going to get about the same tone.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

CFMartin the best
You just can't go wrong buying a CF Martin. The reason I bought the backpacker was to be able to play while reclining in my easy chair. A full sized guitar just isn't comfortable and I've been practicing ALOT more lately 'cause I guess I spend more time in my easy chair then I estimated. Great LITTLE guitar.

Definitely Martin Quality
Great quality instrument. Fun to play with the strap on, but difficult to play on your lap. Good for traveling as the name suggests. Sound is definitely larger that anticipated. Sustain is excellent. Great deal for the money.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
