    Me and my brother met Dick in the Martin museum in may 2016. When asking us we told him we were from Sweden.
    He was very friendly and showed us around. He talked about some of the guitars and also let us feel the sound of two tremendous guitars there...

    It is always great to see Dick on a video. Got to meet him at Martin a few times. What a wonderful company Martin is. They make everyone who comes through the doors feel like they are the most important person in the world ! Well, they did before all this crap started !

    Those are some gorgeous martins. At first I thought the serial number 1 million guitar was too gaudy but when I stopped to think that they have 1 million serialized martins (and this doesn't count all the martins made before they started this practice) I think the appointments are fitting. We're talking about a company that's been in business for almost 200 years! To think that they're still going strong is a testament to the value of good craftsmanship and business savvy.

    Hard to believe Dick Boak is retiring soon. Will be missed.

    How come you don't play the old ones a little more? Are they going to break?

    Re: Clapton Japanese friend's memorial guitar. They don't look like rosettes to me. More like a four petal dogwood blossom.

    I wonder which model was the guitar the idiots Tarantino and Kurt Russell destroyed in "Hateful Eight"?

    Wow, I mean, just wow. There must be as much m.o.p. in that 1,000,000th guitar as there is wood! Well nearly anyway.
    I once heard that the reason an acoustic takes a few years to start sounding it's best is 'cause it takes it that long to realise it's not a tree anymore....

    Actually there were 15 OM-45 Deluxes made in 1930, not 11.

      True, but Martin is Martin. You do buy something special when buying a CFM.
