Rick Smith replied to Todd McFarland's discussion What brand do you play?"Hi
I play a 2006 Martin D18GE, mohogany back and side , adirondak top, loud, clear, responsive, wonderful presence. I also play a 1994 Martin D41, warm, clear, but not as loud."
Rick Smith replied to Todd McFarland's discussion What brand do you play?"I realize this is an older comment, however I am a D18 lover. I own 2 Martins, a D41 which is a fine guitar.
