I am about to buy a Martin. The guy seems a little sketchy so I came here to see about checking out registration. I have also had a beautiful irreplaceable guitar stolen.....my Starfire, distinguished by the funky thing my cousin did to my pick guard back in 1972. My Panther bass was sitting right next to it so I am almost 100% sure who nabbed it. Some ppl r just scrum. I do hope your guitar finds its way home to you.
