Is the neck thin? Like a 3/4 guitar?

Qual mic você usa para gravação? Tanks

Sounds great! What are your go to strings for it?

Interesting thanks

Been looking at one of these. I have had a Gibson 330 for years as it hollow body, has a 43mm nut. As do most of there electrics. I find the close to 44mm accounstric nuts too big, these I see have a 43mm nut. Disipointed with the lack of electrics at a cost 4.4k (UK) sounds great thou!

Sounds insane man!

Yes- I have a 1995 Buddy Holly J45 that has stayed with me when other guitars came and went. I love Martins but a good J45 just has a bit more sparkle while keeping most of the low end

That is a great sounding Gibson, sounds like a thick pick what were you using?

I have one 2 years old now. They're great guitars. It'll start sounding even better after a while. Which I'm sure you already knew that..mine has 1.72 nut width

I’m glad I found your channel, Dave! I’m an avid buyer/seller of acoustic and electric instruments as well. I’ve only tried a few 70s Martins and I was a fan! I don’t understand why they’re seen as “bad” or not as sought after. The only issue I have is I prefer Adirondack spruce for pushing the volume a little louder for bluegrass music.

It was under 2,500 dollars? Just keep it, man. The guitar obviously makes you happy and it (probably) isn't like you'd have to sell your house to keep it. I think it almost sounds like a 1960s Gibson J45. Gregory Alan Isakov style. Hang on to this guitar for maybe 10, 15 years more and you can always sell it then!

Dig the singing with it, really shows how the guitar fits with a voice

Needless fact, i think Zappa played one of those.

I have owned 5 Martin D18S models. I also owned a 1968 D-35 S.. Of the 100 plus guitars I have owned the best guitar I have owned was m the D-35S hands down. The real problem with the 70s Martins was many of the regular D-18 and D28 bridges were installed in the wrong place. My 1972 D-18 is possibly the best of the half dozen D-18 I have owned. I currently own 3 Martins to include a 2015 00-18V with highly figured Mahogany backs and sides.

That thing is got some mojo….🤓

Vintage jems! I really want to find an old Gibson TG-00 or a Kalamazoo KTG-11 or KTG-14. They are super fun! Awesome video by the way!

Enjoyed your rambling (made your story interesting) and playing. Looks like the 0-18 gotta go. Although both guitars seem unique in their own right. Nice to hear the "selling" helps support your family. 😊 If you buy some more guitars don't hesitate to post another video. Thanks!🎵🎙

My brothers got the same one been in our family for four generations now, unreal sounding instruments

Good to know there are others with my problem..😊

Hello! Great playing and cool guitars! Where’d you learn to play these songs?

I have the same battle about guitars. I finally found an answer....I now own 0-18, 000-18 adi/sinker, D28MD !!!

What I know now is vintage Epiphones cost a lot more than vintage Gibsons

How much were you looking to get? Nice guitar!

Wonderful sounding instrument! :)

I also like the Martin 0-18 size. I have 8 of them. 1923, 1927, 1939, 1943, 1949, 1951, 1952, 1968. The 1923 had a big hole in the top fixed by expert repair guy T.J. Thompson. It plays really nice now. The best sounding one might be a 1939. But, they all sound very good with their own distinct sounds. Cracks that are well repaired don't bother me. My 1952 0-18 has 6 repaired cracks in the top. It is a great sounding guitar. I got a 1946 00-18 at a low price because of a couple repairs. A great guitar. I was lucky with all the guitars I bought. Most were bought from reputable dealers so I didn't have to guess much about the status of the guitars regarding repairs and playability. It is possible that a haphazard repair under the bridge of your guitar might need to be redone for it to be its best. But, if the guitar plays and sounds good with a proper nut, then good enough. I also like to bang on my old guitars a bit hard with a light pick - orange Tortex. Finger picking is also good. I spent a lot of time learning Alice's Restaurant.

That is one of the guitars models i bought, but had to sell… i need to find another one like that for my collection… The guitar sounds great… and great for the blues…

I wish i could have that guitar… its mouthwatering…

Super cool Martin my friend! you came up in my feed. enjoyable watch.

I love mine! I have a 2021 50’s reissue. I’ve gotten so many compliments on how it sounds, even from non guitar players.

Mahogany Martins are awesome.

Nice sounding maple AJ!! I recently bought a new J185, and they sound very similar with the crispness, clarity and midrange punch.

It always amazes me how so much tone and volume comes out of these smaller old Martin boxes. Nice playing as well..

Great piece bro !

This one or the standard ?

*promosm*

Sounds great!!

Tune a guitar to Open G tuning

Yeah its sounds like an old gibsonian. I was considering the 42 banner but after listening to it in the raw,i dont think so. My money could best be spent elsewhere ,like eastman guitar remake of this model

Nice instruments but they have that flat plinky plunky sound capoed at the third frett,and maybe a little sweeter at the sixth frett. It sounds the fullest without the capo.

Absolutely beautiful story and a wonderful outcome. Thanks so much for sharing. Gotta love the CME community for sharing the best stuff. xxx

Absolute chills, dude. What a wonderful story and thing you did for your family 👊🏻

Is this your #1 - nice playing!

Cool story. I left a guitar in Germany 53 years ago when I came home while in the Army. It was not an expensive guitar. I had bought it over there and when I was getting ready to go, I gave a friend a little money and my home address. Well, it never made it home. Don't really know why but after getting home my wife (still is) bought me a Washburn which I still own. Thanks for the fun post! Burlington Bill busking on the road and here on You Tube!

Y'all are amazing!!! So. Who's going to pitch this story for a Netflix special? It's made for the world to know.

This is a frickn amazing story! Congratulations Brother Dave. Nice thing to do for your uncle:)

May God bestow this family with many blessings. What another fine example of how to treat your fellow man. Only in Jesus’ name can things like this be possible. Faith does not make things easy, it makes them possible. 🙏

Nicely expressed!

Exciting!

Thank you 👍

Sounds great!! Is that the LG2 historic banner?
