Very nice guitar. I had to set the neck and file down the saddle a bit to get the lower action I needed. It worked out so that at a get together with Rik Emmett (Triumph), he enjoyed playing it very much. Tonal quality has great depth and the onboard electronics were smooth.. I highly recommend it for a lower priced Martin... Don't forget to order a case too..

"It's decent"

Let me start by saying that I have several guitars and just wanted a Martin. This one has decent sound as it is a Martin. As far as comparing it to my others, this would be in my top 5 as far as favorites. I have an Ibanez acoustic/electric that plays better and sounds as good and I have a Zager that sounds the same and is easier to play also. So if my house burned down and I lost it, I would not replace it. But is a Martin.

Musical Background:

guitars, keyboard, just play for fun

Musical Style:

Rock, country
