Sound


Sounds like a million dollars, as any "real" Martin should.

Setup


They put light strings on it when I bought it. All it need was to have mediums put back on and the buzzes were mostly eliminated. It still has a few but they're very minor and the authorized Martin repairman is talking about lowering, not raising, the already low action.

I love it. Beautiful red mahogany. Nice spruce top with with several bear claws.

Haven't dealt with Martin and hope I don't have to. Still, the lifetime warranty is a big plus for me.

Just a beautiful, great sounding ax. The only way to improve it is to play it and let it age.
