Thread Name: Why are Martin Guitars so expensive?
Subject: RE: Why are Martin Guitars so expensive?
I've seen Michael Chapman and Gordon Giltrap playing Fylde guitars; in fact I played Michaels old Fylde Caliban last night. Gordon Giltrap has a Fylde 'signature' model, but also has a collection of Rob Armstrong guitars. Maartin Allcock plays Sobell, Armstrong and ...wait for it...Crafter guitars. Last time I saw Ralph McTell he had two guitars on stage; one was a Martin D28, and the other was a Santa Cruz.
