  6. My agent gave me this guitar to promote Martin on my upcoming mid-western tour. It looks great under the stage lights and most people feel like I’m a good guitarist because they see me play a Martin. I don’t play it so much as hold it but it feels great. I have been a Rock God for almost fifteen years but owning this Martin makes me want to actually learn to play. The girls love it when I sit on a stool and sing ballads while strumming it. I play it unmiked so you can’t really hear it, but the effect is cool!

  9. The tone seems really good, nice and deep, if you strum too hard it gets pretty loud, so you better know what your doing.

  12. The guys in my pick-up band say Martins are really well made and I have seen nothing that would dispel that.

  6. Setup out the box was a little high, however a luthier can make it really smooth and effortless.

  9. This is why you buy a Martin. Flat out uncomparable, really deep and rich, resonates as you play. It’s unreal. I must say I used to love Taylors, specifically 810’s, but they seem chimey — but Taylors are extremely well made.
