Who said craftsmanship, tone, and exceptional playability were too much to ask for in a travel-size acoustic guitar? Certainly not Martin, because its D Jr E Walnut reimagines everything that a junior-sized guitar can be with its mature sound, all-solid construction, and exceptionally smooth playing experience. The D Jr E Walnut pairs a solid spruce top, Aging Toner-treated, with a solid back and sides of beautiful black walnut, resulting in a body that radiates a balanced tone with plenty of clarity and sustain. Likewise, a hardwood neck carved into a Performing Artist profile, a mortise and tenon neck joint, and a smooth ebony fingerboard work to provide substantial resonance, ultimate fretting comfort, and long-lasting durability. And while compact in stature, the D Jr E Walnut remains a full-scale model, clocking in at a familiar feeling 24.9 inches. Finally, with the addition of the Martin E-1 preamp system and gold open-gear tuning machines, Sweetwater guitarists are able to sound their very best wherever the music leads, from the studio and stage to the beach and beyond.
The fact that the D Jr E Walnut is accessible, junior-sized, and configured with the sonic benefits of all-solid tonewoods makes it all the more enticing! It starts with a top wood of spruce, presenting traditional balance across the frequency spectrum and superb projection. Treated with Martin's Aging Toner finish, the D Jr E Walnut exudes a subtle vintage energy from the moment you first glance at it. Supplementing the spruce's balance is the unique addition of black walnut, providing not only incredible clarity and sustain in tonal character but also a gorgeous natural dark grain that's sure to turn heads.
Whether you need to survive long recording sessions or plan to play out late into the night, you'll be glad to have the D Jr E Walnut in hand. This easy-playing 6-string features Martin’s revered and incredibly welcoming Performing Artist series (PA) neck profile. Its slim carve is effortless to grip, enabling you to play for extended periods of time with commanding control and hardly any strain on your chording hand. Many acoustic players here at Sweetwater have long relied upon the playing ease of Martin’s PA profile, and for an axe already as comfort-conscious as the D Jr E Walnut, it's a match made in heaven.
The D Jr E Walnut's attention to sonic detail already makes for fantastic acoustic tone, but you’ll be glad to know that it's also equipped with Martin’s precision E-1 preamp. With the E-1 discreetly onboard, plugging in at gigs or through your recording interface delivers an impressively dynamic, natural sound. Featuring an underside-mountedpickup at the bridge supported by Volume/Phase and Tone controls beneath the soundhole, it's a breeze to shape the plugged-in tone of the D Jr E Walnut. Complete with a built-in chromatic tuner, the D Jr E Walnut will sound its best for every tune in your set.
