Martin Backpacker Left-Handed, (Used)

The Martin Backpacker Left-Handed is a compact acoustic guitar designed for players who need portability without sacrificing tone or build quality. Its unique travel-friendly body is constructed with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid tonewood back and sides, providing clear resonance and balanced projection despite its small size. The satin finish keeps the instrument lightweight and smooth, making it comfortable to handle during extended travel or casual playing sessions.

The neck is crafted from select hardwood and joined with a sturdy mortise and tenon joint for stability. A Richlite fingerboard offers durability and a smooth playing surface, featuring 15 frets clear of the body and a 24-inch scale length that provides familiar string tension in a compact form. Designed specifically for left-handed musicians, the Backpacker ensures ergonomic comfort and playability tailored to their needs while maintaining Martin’s signature craftsmanship.

Hardware includes chrome-enclosed tuning machines that provide reliable tuning stability, along with a compensated Graph Tech TUSQ nut and saddle for improved resonance and intonation accuracy. The lightweight design, weighing just over two pounds, makes it an ideal companion for travel, camping, or practice on the go. A padded gig bag is included, ensuring the instrument remains protected wherever it’s taken.
