    Obviously I adore seeing all the guitars especially the flat tops that you bring out but I just wanted to tell you I really, really love your music and the way you play. It encourages me to dig a little deeper. I watch your hands a lot. Thank you for posting these wonderful videos no matter how old they are.

    This guitar just seems to speak to you with the way the notes ring off. So soulful and full of life. Also feels kindof like when talking with your grandpa or someone of similar position. Just simply wiser and more well seasoned. My god this guitar is wonderful

    Thanks again, Mark & Jen. My daily dose of geeking out on stuff i can't afford. And my brain is ever more full of guitar nerd info. i DO enjoy the weird-ass stuff sometimes too, but i'll take all the Triple-0s and Juniors and Precisions you got. Thanks some more.

    @tradeka4206 Před 6 lety +10

    People often say that these are a waste of money and you can get the same tone out of a new guitar, but they need to get their ears checked. There is just nothing that can compete with the tone that comes out of these old martins. So beautiful. Man I wish I could afford one 😂

  • @PotPoet
    @PotPoet Před 3 lety +1

    Martin offered steel strings as a standard set up way back in 1917. The 1350 Koa models had it. In 1918 they decided to market them with rosewood or mahogany sides and a spruce top and called them OO-18. I know - I own a 1917 1350 Koa with steel strings on it.

    • @michaelgonzalez7304
      @michaelgonzalez7304 Před 7 měsíci +1

      Actually 1915, is when Martin offered steel strings on their guitars.

    • @PotPoet
      @PotPoet Před 7 měsíci +1

      @michaelgonzalez7304 Sorry my friend, but no Martin guitars were sold with steel strings (except for custom orders) before 1917. That is according to Martin historian Mike Longworth in personal correspondence. According to the book Martin Guitars: A History, p. 68, it was the success of the 1917 koa 1350 models that "prompted Martin to officially offer its first production of steel string for regular playing in 1922."

  • @carrickbender
    @carrickbender Před 6 lety +1

    This is a lovely, lovely guitar. Suggestion? A great piece for a "seasoned" Martin would be "Ashokan Farewell", popularized by the Ken Burns series, "the civil war". Truly a great piece for a deserving guitar like this....

  • @chrisandsamlivingthedream

    Lovley guitar ... love just to have a play ... cheers Chris from England

  • @BreadLightPray_EWFMgtr

  • @angryshoebox
    @angryshoebox Před 6 lety +1

    Nice guitar, and nice playing, as always. I must confess, though, the first couple bars of the flat-picked song made me think of the Motel 6 ads from the '90s("This is Tom Bodett, and, we'll leave the light on for ya.").
