Just got home from PA and got a chance to visit the Martin factory for the tour. I spent some time in the museum, played some great guitar and now I find I am eager to get another Martin.
If any of you get the chance to visit Martin, I think you will really enjoy the experience.

I'm new around here, but I have a '72 D35 and and '05 000-28 NB. The D35 is an adequate box, but I find that I have hardly played it since getting the Norman Blake - it is something special, both the way it sounds and the way it feels in my lap.

Paige, Thanks for starting this group. Look forward to hearing you at the Grass Valley festival this year.
I have two Martins. A D18 and a D18.

I will ask Barb if she will let me do that. I think I know the answer but it never hurts to ask, right?

No problem LJ! Just send me 2 grand as a deposit!

I think you should ship that guitar around to a few of us to try out, Dave. It looks too pretty for one guy to have all to himself!

Mine is a 2002 I believe. Bryan did some things to it before I got it. He removed the popsicle brace, shaved the back braces a bit, plugged the tuner holes and re-drilled so the tuner shafts are snug, and he also slotted the bridge. Bone nut and saddle top it off, and she's a monster sounding 18. I love the wider fingerboard and ebony in place of rosewood too.

My 42' D18 is one of the best guitars I have ever heard. Don't know what exactly makes them so special. Not being a great guitar picker, myself, I feel blessed to have found and own it, or maybe it owns me.

I love my D-18. Sounds great through a mic and mine is feather light. There is something special about a mahogany guitar.
Bob Minner Comment by Bob Minner on April 13, 2009 at 8:32pm
yes, the D-18 is a great recording guitar. I have a 1943 D-18 that is just amazing in front of a mic.
