    D JR 2A SAPELE
    The Dreadnought Junior has been well received by many music industry publications including Guitar World, featuring the guitar in their “Best of NAMM” issue, Total Guitar which named it a “best buy” in 2015 and Acoustic Guitar UK saying “There comes a time when you get a guitar and just know it has ‘acoustic guitar of the year’ written all over it... It might be small but, oh my, it's perfectly formed- surely, we have a new category on our hands.”
    “This year we proudly celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the iconic Martin Dreadnought (1916-2016), a model that has played a huge role in shaping American music and is one of the most replicated body sizes in the world,” said CEO and Chairman Chris Martin IV. “It is not often we introduce a new body size, so we are very proud to continue to add to the Martin Dreadnought legacy with the introduction of the Dreadnought Junior, which offers to guitar enthusiasts worldwide a new body size with the same renowned Martin tone and premier quality people have come to expect from Martin Guitar.”

    Awesome guitar skills & review by Jarvis! Only got to watch this review yesterday. But was glad that I already bought my Martin Dreadnought Junior 2 (Sepele top) early Oct 2017 at 20% discount, which was a "steal", as it is one of the best all solid wood guitar for below S$1,000.

    Awesome review by Jarvis! :) Best value-for-money all solid wood guitar by Martin! I am a recent owner of the Martin DJ2 and it will remain with me for a long long time. If you are wondering if you should get this guitar? Buy it, you won't regret it!

    I spent a good 2 hours alternating between this and the spruce top over at the music store yesterday. Both came close, loved the warm tone of the Sepele, but the lack in detail worried me a little. In the end I went for the Spruce as it sounded more detailed - and that I could tame the brightness down with pins and saddle if I wished to. Now after watching your video... im not too sure I made the right choice.

    Another great review Jarvis from Singapore! I have to agree with a few below that I preferred the spruce topped model for it's volume and complexity of the notes. I also felt the spruce top model resonated with more overtones than the sapele model. They both sounded great but the spruce for me will be more versatile. BTW....I'm still amazed at this guitar for its comfort, volume, tone and quality....so fun to play and it records very very well! Thanks Jarvis!

    Awesome video review! Do you prefer the 2 over the 1 (original jr)? I love the looks of the sapele more :)

  • @paulocabrita7544
    @paulocabrita7544 Před 7 lety

    Amazing demo! Congrats! Is it me, or does the E string sound tuned when you play the G, but not tuned when you play the E? Are there tuning issues in that particular string along the scale (different frets have slight tuning differences in that same string)?

    Hello. Help me. I have a quick question .i don't know what I choose GS mini mahogany vs Martin jr 2. Which do u more prefer?? If u were I,what would u choose??

  • @xochilt1007
    @xochilt1007 Před 4 lety +1

    Sir, which one would you recommend.... the Martin Djr2 or the Taylor gs mini Koa?

    • @TheGuitarSpaSingapore
      @TheGuitarSpaSingapore  Před 4 lety

      You have to decide what you like ...Martin the tone will aged and improved over time.,...GS MIni will probably sound the same with little improvement even after a few years

  • @runsprint123

    Hi, just want to enquire which of these two wood options are less prone to bloating from singapore’s climate?

  • @BaktaBak3
    @BaktaBak3 Před 8 lety

    I have the Martin Dred Jr. with spruce top & love it. Thinking I need to get this model also. :-) Both sound so good....different....but good. Does this model also have built in pick up? Like having that option of using an amp. Look forward to seeing your reviews. You do a great job.

    Very nice. Maybe Martin will make a koa????

    • @amis4172
      @amis4172 Před 2 lety

      I realize I’m commenting on a super old comment, but I found this video in search of a travel guitar to supplement my 000-18. It seems Martin reserves Koa (even “pressed layers” which is essentially laminate) for their higher end models. The least expensive Koa I’ve seen is the 000-12e Koa, and even that’s pressed Koa. Meanwhile, it costs the same as the 000-13 with an identical top and specs, but with mahogany sides and back. So I highly doubt we’ll see a DJr in Koa anytime soon. Unfortunately.

    Great stuff Jarvis! Just a quick question, if I have a taylor gs mini would be worth it to upgrade to this?

    Great video Jarvis. you prefer sepele or spruce ?

    • @TheGuitarSpaSingapore
      @TheGuitarSpaSingapore  Před 8 lety

      That's a very personal question that I don't like to answer !!!! Lol!! I prefer the open wider tone of the spruce TOP and I'm sure over time once the Sapele opens up it will sound pretty good but different from the Sitka spruce TOP

    • @santigaba7020
      @santigaba7020 Před 8 lety

      LOL ... Thanks for your response. I'm very undecided I had a guitar Sigma 000M15 and I was very happy. I tried the DJR spruce, great guitar but I can not find the Sapele. Anyway thank you for your enthusiasm and long life to you Jarvis. Lol.... Hello from France
