u guys are the sweetest, i don't even play guitar that much but i watch ur videos because i love watching u talk about guitars, i can really feel ur passion for it! a big shout out from switzerland !
Good review as always, guys. Although a slighter older iteration, I've had a Martin Dreadnought Jr.e (without the 10 in the model name) for about three years and couldn't be more pleased with it. Such good tone for a small guitar, considerably better than its competitors and the nut width is very accommodating for fingerpicking.
I’m more of a cutaway fan but I like the tones from the dreadnought more. Both are great I’m sure. Gotta love a good solid body though. Great review as always
Thanks for the nice video! Between the Martin 000CJR-10E StreetMaster and OOO-10E if tone is the priority would you say is better to go for the more expensive and slightly bigger model? I'm not sure is worth the extra cash. I would have to make a more careful comparison my self. But some input is always appreciated. Has anybody made such a comparison?
This video was very helpful. This week, I purchased the OOOC-10E Jr. I was torn between this and the Street Master version. I couldn't see paying an extra $100 for the Street Master version. It would be nice to see a comparison review.
That’s the kinda smooth guitar jamming i imagine myself playing , however, reality is somewhat miles apart. Those skills are so inspiring that I feel inspired to leave my guitar where it is and spare people from any danger of hearing me twang away blaming my guitar for my lack of talent. But, as we can all dream, I’ll still be contemplating whether or not to go for one of these Martin’s or the gs mini. I’m drawn to the Martin jnrs, but the gs mini sounds mega easy to play . But laminate back and sides on the gs mini puts me off. I have an Australian Maton dreadnought which is built so nice and looks so good, but I jjst find it too big and I’m not a fan of the Maton sound or playability even though they’re highly rated over here in oz. Something about the Martin guitars that has that sound I think of that is what lured me into wanting to learn how to play. Not to mention cobain used a Martin in the unplugged set. Higher end model and different model altogether I know but still, yknow what I’m sayin. Great playing great vid dudes thanks
Very interesting - thanks! I wonder which version would still retain enough highs to sound good when tuned down to C# standard - naturally with thicker-gauge strings so they aren’t too slack?
@@ricksweitzer7155 totally agree. Just got the 000jr streetmaster. I was shocked at how cheap bag was for money. I also have GS mini and bag much better. I had to buy mono bag for travel. Yes, Martin can do better. Guitar is great and I actually love. Martin, please at least take a bit off of your margins or increase price a bit more so we can have reasonable travel bag for a really great guitar for travel. Fits nicely in overhead, even on smaller regional jets. I have never been asked to check…so far🤞🤞🤞
The richlite fret board sounds and feels great. Richlite is actually more expensive than ebony . . . Nothing to sneeze at, as always, Martin knows what they are doing here.
Would you recommend this for your 1 and only acoustic? I play gigs 2-3 times a week with a keyboard and drums, would this be a good fit for that? 000cjr specifically
I could hear the compression from the sepele top, and the 000CJR sounded brighter and clearer to me. I have a Taylor A10e that I like better sonically.
I spoke before I watched the video,,,,2-3 minutes in we had to hear about TAYLOR,,,,I should have known that Chris couldn't do a video without mentioning TAYLOR.!!!
Holy cow bro. I’ve watched so many of their videos, rarely any of their Taylor videos. It’s totally legit to mention Taylor here since they have comparable items in this niche.
Nobody denies that Martin makes great guitars, but it is only in the last few years that they had anything new to market. So they deserve to be applauded for their innovations. Why do they have to innovate? Taylor! Let’s give them both credit.
These basses sound great unplugged, but the piezo under saddle sounds awful plugged in. I’d prefer an electric pickup. Then you get the lightness, small size, playability, but the electric bass sound. Sound great unplugged, tho.
Distressed finish so it looks like somebody's been playing it on the streets for ten years and a plastic fretboard and relatively expensive for what you're getting. Hmm, not sure about these
When you demonstrate a guitar, you must keep in mind that you're playing it for people who need to hear the tone and versatility of the instrument. We don't want to listen to your personal instrumental expertise.
