24 Sep 01 - 04:04 PM (#557890) Subject: RE: Guitars From: Wesley S Kendell - I hope you know that I was paraphrasing Martins own advertisments. I've known and loved some Gibsons and Guilds in my time. Of course my preference is for Marins. I've played more Martins that I've loved than any other brand. Just my .02 cents worth. |

25 Sep 01 - 02:50 PM (#558476) Subject: RE: Guitars From: Jack the Sailor Martin Guitars are C.F. Martin's gift to music. A durned nice gift it was too! I don't own one but I've heard some really nice ones! |

25 Sep 01 - 02:52 PM (#558478) Subject: RE: Guitars From: 53 gigsons, takamine's, taylors, all sound sooo much better so go out and try one of those before before you make up your mind. bob. |

25 Sep 01 - 03:27 PM (#558521) Subject: RE: Guitars From: Wesley S I have tried them all. And I keep trying them. Even the gigsons. I play a Martin because it was the best I could find for what I wanted to play. It's all a mater of taste. There is no right or wrong viewpoint. |

25 Sep 01 - 04:30 PM (#558570) Subject: RE: Guitars From: Jack the Sailor Mudlark How was that for getting back on subject 53 I have a gigson and a Seagull, I would trade neither for the martins I have heard. Never the less the Martins are nice guitars for folk, country and gospel as well as bluegrass. |

25 Sep 01 - 04:36 PM (#558577) Subject: RE: Guitars From: Mudlark Excellent....a quick retrieve.... I have a martin 016 that I love...I do play mostly folk music, but have been branching out into Fats Waller and 20's-40's stuff and it sounds pretty good to me (the guitar that is....my playing leaves much to be desired.) I resisted steel strings for a long time, fearing they would be too brassy for 200 yr old ballads...but this Martin, while bright, is very mellow.... |
