Strumming Little Martin guitar

[Wayne27]

Can you strum the Little Martin Guitar like a Dreadnought or will it be too hard for it? Also is the Little Martin guitar consider a parlor guitar

I don't consider it a parlor guitar, though it's not far off. The size "0" guitars are more what I would consider a parlor guitar.

Ed Sheeran strums his, but don't expect the volume or the tone of a dreadnought.

Re: Strumming Little Martin guitar

I strum my OOO Martin
And my dreadnought sized hummingbird

They are similar in volume
Both have extra light strings

Larger gauge strings increase volume and tone

I am sure the smaller Martin was meant to be played
And will survive the larger strings if you decide to go that route

So my vote is yes
