"My first Martin"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I saw this beauty, and I fell in love. It plays smoothly, and looks amazing. The back and sides are koa fine veneer, which I was worried about, but I did some research and found that underneath the koa is solid mahogany. Please correct me if Im wrong!! Even so, it plays wonderfully. I ordered it it from zZounds, and recieved it in two days via fed ex, and it arrived undamaged and in perfect shape. I will be a return customer, and my next Martin will be a USA model!
