These are slightly smaller 000 or Dreadnought bodies that refuse to make sacrifices in tone or volume. Junior Series models are built for comfort and playability, making them ideal for your first guitar. But they’re also big on traditional Martin features like solid wood construction and ¼-inch scalloped X-bracing. They deliver all the tone you’d expect from a larger Martin guitar while ensuring you’ll never outgrow them. With a high-performance tapered neck, pleked frets, and a contoured back edge, Junior Series guitars are so comfortable that you’ll have a tough time putting them down. These smaller body guitars let you make great music, not compromises.

The Dreadnought Junior is designed for players looking for big Dreadnought sound in a slightly smaller body. The DJr-10 features satin finished sapele back and sides in a rich cherry hue, an option of satin finished Sitka spruce or Sapele top, and a hand-rubbed neck with a high-performance taper. This model also sports a thinner 000 body depth with softer back edges to provide maximum comfort while playing. Every Junior includes a soft gig bag for easy transport.
