Negative reviews compare the backpacker to a full sized guitar, which it was never intended to be. A decent travel guitar like this enables you to get more practice in, that's its real value.
Hi Darren. I found your review very helpful and you make it sound much better than I can. My main point is disability is overlooked at times when creating instruments. I have arthritic shoulder joints and getting my arms to hold standard guitars is very painful. This little gem is perfect for me. It’s sits nicely on my lap and no stretching needed to play or fret the strings. There must be a large market for guitarists with shoulder mobility problems. This guitar suits my disability. (I’m still rubbish btw )
2:54 omg I can’t believe u actually played that been trying to find travel Guitars for the sole purpose to be able to play Jack Johnson everywhere I go!
They're a bit frustrating because they're hard to get a comfortable hold on. But, like you say, they are designed for a purpose. When traveling it keeps me in practice and keeps the callouses in shape. They also have an interesting tone that could be useful in recording. I wouldn't recommend it as a main guitar but it's good for what it's made to do. Good review and nice playing.
Instead of attaching the strap to the heel button, try using the strap string to tie the strap to the headstock. It'll be much more comfortable to hold.
When sitting, I rest my backpacker on the inside of my thigh, not on my lap. That gives me the balance, leverage, and comfort. If I have to be out all day, dentist, post office, lunch with friends, meeting, then I'll take in a sunset on the riverside playing my backpacker. I put my tablet in the pouch on the carry bag, because I can't carry my 65" 4K TV with me all day either.
Probably not as a main guitar if you're an experienced player, but dreadnoughts are much too bulky for me to properly hold so something small like this is the perfect beginner guitar for me. I also didn't find it necessary to spend on a small fortune on a really nice, larger guitar if I can barely play two chords in succession. There's definitely cons, but I think for the price I got it at and the reasons I got it for it's a great guitar.
@@halaagmod That's all that matters. If it works for you, it's something that you can practice everyday on and you like it, mission accomplished. There's no standards to measure up to regardless of what snobs say.
I think one important thing is it's not really meant to be a travel guitar. If you want a decent travel guitar, check out the Little Martin. This is a guitar meant for backpacking, so it's built lightly, and in such as way so it can fit in a backpack. Hence the name... It sounds just fine for what it is. Imagine being deep in the backwoods with your buddies around a campfire after dinner and strumming along to some old tunes. It's perfect for that.
I believe the dif between the two is the one you describe has a shorter scale length, more of a childs guitar renamed. Both suck. But if i had to choose between a crappy sound and a fretboard made for midget fingers i would have to go with crappy sound because i have sausage fingers and simply could not play a kids guitar to well.
Watching/listening to you play reminded me of my brother. He would sit and just work his way around his guitar for hours. He passed away 15 years ago this coming Christmas...I still miss him. Thanks for triggering some wonderful memories.
@@darrenkelfkens8539 hi, I'm considering this because I need something to just practice on short trips but it looks a little long to be allowed I'm airline overhead bins. That is my main requirement, to not have to check it in. Do you think it will be allowed?
Very true. Seeing pro's play with the 'Hello Kitty' line of instruments is funny, inspiring, and at the same time a little discouraging LOL Damn it, they sound better than I do on my American Tele :(
Thanks for the vid! Nice playing! I've had my Backpacker since 1998 and still love it! It's been to SE Asia, Europe and the back woods of BC with me. I use d' D' Addario Silk and Steel strings (very light gauge) on mine and love the tone and feel! Cheers.
@@jonboymartin8461 - I was just playing my Jim Dandy a minute ago. I have Taylors otherwise. I leave the Jim Dandy out in my living room to play, and would use it for a travel guitar.
@@julienielsen3746 they a great travel guitar I have gotten them and overhead storage of buses and I have play it on the streets all over the United States with one of those for about 2 years those suckers last I've met other people with them as well and then neck differentiates the all-around great parlor guitar I really hate The Backpacker I don't even know why it's a guitar it's not in my opinion
I hope Martin will makes some upgrades on this model. Probably remove the headstock and put the tuners on the heel(just like the Traveler AG-105EQ). By doing that it will improve the neck heavy balance. Then make it a full scale(24.9 maybe) length size and add a truss rod maybe. Then maybe make the hole a little bigger maybe in oval shape to help reduce its boxy tone. And to improve further, make the back a little arched. This is a great little piece to bring anywhere, or when you are in very limited space like a dorm, or this is good also for playing while your lying in bed till you asleep..
My reason for looking this up is that I met a fellow playing one of these on the beach. He really knew his stuff so that probably made it sound better. I believe I want one now.
I am really thinking about going for one of these fellas for Christmas. I've got limited space and I really miss having a guitar in the house! Always wanted a Martin.
Great video ,that shows a very clear picture of the guitar , a very informative review giving good sound to judge the guitar fairly ,and great playing,, to hear someone talk about an instrument with respect and honesty is great ..! Many thanks 😉✌️🙏💯❤️
@@darrenkelfkens8539 hi there , I looked at them many Years ago ,but wasn't sure , saw this , and it influenced me to buy one..😉✌️🌈...I live in U.K....but ordered one from America , so the guitar would be like a ship..⛵. And have a journey...behind it when I got it....I have a record of every stop it's made to get here , and am expecting it any day now.....😉✌️💯 That journey adds to the feelings when I play the guitar....Thanks again for a great video..🙏
i've had about 50 or so guitars over the last few years, my first guitar was a framus, so although i couldn't get the model i wanted (a texan, i got one eventually) i bought a littel L50 parlour guitar, designed for both nylon or steel strings, i couldn't get any sense out of it, so when i got the framus texan i sold it. the guy who bought had a go with nylon strings, he did better than me but we also tried it with steel strings, and boy, he made it sound good, bits of blues and jazz, got a sound out of it i couldn't. it's not just about the guitar, at the moment i have 11 guitars, i've had a 66 J45 since the seventies, i have a 69 epi texan, but i've had much less expensive guitars that sound pretty good in comparison. the big surprise for me is my little martin OOOX1, bought for £350 with case, HLP back and sides - blows all my other guitars away. (i play finger picking blues mainly).
I was wondering how it would do for finger packing, that's kinda all I do and certain guitars seem better then others in that style. Debating on whether or not to get it!
Been trying all day to get this video to play . All other videos work perfect . This one says cant connect. I bought the guitar I think it sounds decent.
How do you think this would pair with a ToneWood amp? I have the amp but would like something for Busking and camping. This guitar has always had mixed reviews
Don't go for something like this. I would suggest a full body sized guitar from Orangewood. You're looking at around $200 for any decent beginners guitar. Don't sacrifice anymore cost than that otherwise you're just gonna buy something that'll make it more difficult to learn.
I have one of these, I love it and it gets better with age! No, it has not got the bass of a large acoustic but it is bright as a button on the sound! You do have to wear the strap and I wish they made a kinda folding back for it!
Awesome review. I didn't realize until I watched you play that I would have to adjust the way I rest my hand when finger picking. Not sure I'd like that.
I have one and I recomend as a travel Guitar. Its cheap, strong and easy to handle. Needs some time to get used to his shape, but the strap helps a Lot. I like when I am travelling and I play with other people and his unique sound makes a big difference, giving richness to the music. Once a friend playing a Gibson and I and my backpacker played all night a Lot of different songs, with no amps, and everybody loved.
You know that Robert Johnson started with a fence string + 2 tax on a side of a house as a guitar besides after a couple joints in a few beers every guitar sounds good around a campfire especially if you can play it or not it really reminds me of the old style recordings and it just has that sound good video
Darren Kelfkens you'd think eh? Honestly gonna have the action adjusted however despite that I Must say it's Incredibly convenient and beautifully made
Darren, I thought of getting one but I'm an electric only player with a light touch and arthritis. Is the action sort of rough? I'm really just asking. It looks sort of high.
The one great thing is that you can only put extra light Guage (011's) on it 'cos it has no truss rod...hence it's really playable even if the action is not perfect, if you play electrics it'll be an easy switch over.
"Never going back again" by Fleetwood Mac - as for it being "the official song of acoustic guitar reviews" :-) I'm not sure, I just thought it would be cool to open with it!
Thanks for your review. The MBSS will be my first guitar. The points made regarding structure/finish/features, overall presentation of review, and demonstration of sound has convinced and inspired me. Thanks again.
Fantastic traveler. He teased a bit of jack Johnson. It’s a great guitar for what it is designed for. I have one because I travel a lot. And I like to just jam a bit in my hotel room. So this is perfect. For all of the complainers out there.....ok.......then go and build one. If not then just shut up.
Action is a little high (just a little, not 'cheap guitar' high) but I don't mind that. There is space on the saddle to lower the action if you want to.
So a lot of idiots have reviewed this product and compared apples with oranges. Sounds like the majority of users on the internet to me! This is a great review.
Heh, looks like a strum stick/dulcimer but in std key with all strings. I love this thing, and it doesn't look out of place at a folk music jam or over power other instruments
I have both BP and Washburn Rover. The BP neck is like my Baby Taylor whereas the Rover has a full scale neck plus sounds better than the BP and easier to play. Surprised that in already having a Washburn that you didn't see their Rover.
How does it compare to the Yamaha APXT2? I think Yamaha is cheaper, sits on your lab more comfortably and sounded better in my opinion. The only advantage is the Martin name badge, if you are into brand names.
I could listen to him talk and play all afternoon
You could also use it to paddle your canoe in an emergency.
😂😂😂
Backpackers love multi use items 😂😜
You dumb schmuck.
MrAlex5378 well that’s a bit aggressive
Lol perfect I'll be getting one now!

At last, somebody who can play one.

@@standardnnn6064 Maybe so, but the Backpacker popularized the concept.
@@standardnnn6064 what are some others you'd recommend?
@@GeckoPixel
I would say Klos or Yamaha Apxt2.
Baby Taylor is 3/4 sized and sounds much better.
I've had mine for almost 20 years... I had to adjust the action when I got it, but it does what it is intended to do...and have no complaints.
Thank you. I'm curious, how do you adjust the action? I don't think mine has a truss rod...
@@mrFeinsilver I was able to lower the bridge (shaved it down from the bottom) and adjusted the nut....(filed the grooves)
Thank you so much for this review! It was clear and made a ton of sense!! Definitely deserve more subscribers.
Hi Darren. I found your review very helpful and you make it sound much better than I can. My main point is disability is overlooked at times when creating instruments. I have arthritic shoulder joints and getting my arms to hold standard guitars is very painful. This little gem is perfect for me. It’s sits nicely on my lap and no stretching needed to play or fret the strings. There must be a large market for guitarists with shoulder mobility problems. This guitar suits my disability.

When flying with it, do you put it under the seat or in overhead compartment?
I keep it with me...so under the seat. Just don't trust other people with their bags in overhead.
Picked one of these up today for 150.00 I'd say it's a fair price not a great price but I feel the value is there...
awesome review! 👍thinking of picking one up myself. what is the song you play starting at 3:27?
Joe Satriani - Tears in the Rain
I wish there was a bass version of this
The sound of this makes me name it the Guitjor.
Still a unique sounding great instrument to have handy when you travel.😊
Great and precise video on the backpacker... What is the last tune at 3.35
Joe Satriani - Tears in the Rain
Looks beautiful.
You make it sound good!
Great video, question, what's the melody at the 3:50 mins mark?
Tears in the rain by Joe Satriani
great playing i m getting one of this
Whats the opening song? I hear this played on a lot of acoustic guitar review videos. Is this like the official song of acoustic guitar reviews?
"Never going back again" by Fleetwood Mac - as for it being "the official song of acoustic guitar reviews" :-) I'm not sure, I just thought it would be cool to open with it!

It may just be me but the action was super high and the fretboard seemed really dry when I tried it, maybe a crap unit but I like the shape and scale
I don't know if it's your hands or the guitar but it sounds awesome.
Hi, what is the song that you/ he begins playing at 2:52? Thanks!
Jack Johnson - Banana Pancakes
Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson :-)

Jack Johnson I love it
I'd love to hear a full cover of banana pancakes on this guitar. great review, looks fun!

It comes with Martin string - only use extra light guage!

nice to hear Satriani song
nice honest demo ta
I have both BP and Washburn Rover. The BP neck is like my Baby Taylor whereas the Rover has a full scale neck plus sounds better than the BP and easier to play. Surprised that in already having a Washburn that you didn't see their Rover.
The fretting is off. Tunned and moved down to next fret and it was sharp on every fret. Tuned the That fret and the open strings were off
I'd like to get one of these. I take it they don,'t have a truss rod? I'd like to hsve one with a pickup.
That is correct there is no truss rod and only extra-light guage strings are suggested.
Yeah!!! Banana Pancakes😀
So what is the opinion on it?
Just the job I think, thanks for the review.
Please teach us how to play Never Going Back Again! Been trying to learn that damn song for like a year now. 😂
I'll put that on my "to do" list 🙂
Interesting some people are tuning them to DADGAD and get a better sound Nashville high tuned stings also help bring it to life.
Looks unplayable. Is it hard to press? Especially at the bottom? Did you do any modifications to it?
No modifications at all...
Whats the name of the song in the beginning of the video.
It's Never going back again by Fleetwood Mac
What is the song you are playing for the intro?
Never going back again Fleetwood Mac
How does it compare to the Yamaha APXT2?
I think Yamaha is cheaper, sits on your lab more comfortably and sounded better in my opinion. The only advantage is the Martin name badge, if you are into brand names.
What is tuning on guitar ?
Standard tuning EBGDAE altho its sound great in open G and dropped D too.
I Love mine! Rocking at 6621 ft.
Wonderful for cricket
Never going back again, beauty
