Quality:
Martin Quality made right here in the U.S.A. by people who know what a guitar should sound like and actually care.
Value:
You get what you pay for. You can put a pig in a dress and you still got a pig. However a truly beautiful woman looks great in a ball gown or old faded jeans and a ball cap.
Desirability:
This guitar lives up to the Martin name.
Sound:
Full sound with many options. Martin+Fishman= Great Sound. Any acoustic guitar will begin to sound better as the wood ages but with a sound this good from day one I can't wait to hear what she sounds like in 20 years.
Ease of Use:
With the many option of the blended mic and pick up the options are many. I find myself spending a lot of time during practice just seeing what tones I can get out of her.
Support:
Have not had to use any support yet but they have contacted me to let me know that they are there if I need them.

Feature:
Built in tuner. Aura pickup with customizable settings, and so on. What else could you ask for in a Ac/Elec?
Quality:
Straight out of the box one of the nicest guitars I've owned. Finish was excellent, not a blem on it, and plays excellent. Holds tune VERY well (too well, since I sometimes take for granted that it will just be in tune when I pick it up).
Value:
A little pricey, but well worth the cost. Great product.
Desirability:
Looks great under the lights on stage. The gloss top really puts off the light. Wish it were full gloss, but hey, can't have it all... or can we? ;-)
Sound:
As an acoustic guitar, this is one of the best sounding Martin's I've head. Not as throaty as a D-28, but still great bass sound coupled with good highs. Plugged in is where this guitar shines. With the Aura pickup, and the option to blend makes this guitar sound so good when plugged in that I find myself plugging in sometimes at home just to play around a little.
Support:
Called Martin one time to just talk about the onboard tuner, and they were a treat to deal with. Very pleasurable experience.
