Can you try and explain what Bubinga is similar to ? I’ve only seen one other guitar with it as a tone wood on the back and sides.
Entirely to much talking
Massive Wanker!!!????????????????
The Taylor 114ce-SB could compete with the Road Series. For $1000.00 with case, the 114ce-SB plays and sounds amazing. It has a solid Sitka Spuce top while having a walnut layered back and sides but it would keep up with the Martin Mexican made Road series. The Taylor 114ce-SB would be comparable if not even better.
It’s also one of three special editions by Taylor. Trust me as I own the Martin D-15m and my 114ce-SB, in my opinion sounds better. It’s even really good with lower tones. The Martin D-15m does have a bit more low end but the Taylor 114ce-SB hold it’s on regarding the lower tone, mid tone, and the highs. Like the Martin D15m the Taylor also had the 1 11/16 nut width un like the D-18 with the 1 3/4 nut width the D-15m has 1 11/16 as the Taylor.
The 15M Series … Period !
Got myself a D JR-10 and couldnt be happier. Sounds great and super easy to play without any fatigue. Was gonna go with an X series but opted for the solid wood jr.
8:45 CHALLENGE ACCEPTED:
The guitars you’d be looking for in this category are the E1, E2 and E3 by Eastman. Excellent all solid wood guitars, available in OM and dreadnaught bodies.
Is there dx series that is all solid wood?
martin is a great guitar for name.sound.qualities is a best
Question? Ever heard of a EMP1 Martin? Basically was an employee crafted guitar by Martin
You know I thought that nazerith pa. Would be better just by experience alone. But I just bought a new Martin up here in Canada and I think it kinda went the other way because my mexican guitar just rang over the others. Then I found out it's origin and it's here with me now… later.
Zither guitar stands – nice
Always appreciate your product insights
Best Martin guitars are, when you buy it, when you play & take care of it for next 10-15 years with your growing skill, when you create own song & love your own, no matter the type are. Because the best guitars are the custome made by your own life & creativity.
After owning a great Martin and selling it, I decided to go with a Yamaha Fgx5 and haven't looked back. The guitar has all solid woods, Bone nutsaddle with electronics and an amazing sound. For me it plays and sounds much better than my Martin without a setup and I saved a thousand bucks. I never knew Yamaha makes such quality instruments, I would've paid Martin prices for this Yamaha, it's that good!
Bad channel. You're making me buying more and more guitars.

Martin need to sort out their warrantee conditions for buyers outside the U.S. Put down 4K for a Martin and we get a 1 year warrantee…my new favourite joke.
Great advice .. but no where does it mention .. " FIRST, rob a bank" .
i have a 1972 D-35 and it is a beaut. like the red violin, it captures you and doesn't want you to put it down. no shit sherlock. what kind of value does it have.? any idea.?
To my ears martin's has that 3d sound, only found on very expensive custom made guitars .
Thanks.
Love Martin. Love Santa Cruz too.
The people make the difference on close calls. Martin's Dick Boak (retired) & Chris (retired) at Martin Co plus colleagues make that difference. Richard Hoover and crew of Santa Cruz do too.
By the way surely you know you had a ground loop issue on your audio, otherwise nice video.
Best strings for a Martin DX1 ?
✌
No DM ???
Martin. There is no other…
Best video you've ever done! For a lot of amateur musicians like myself there's Gibson, Fender, and Martin period. Nothing else matters! Many good one's out there but I won't buy them unless it's one a them. Mainly for resale purposes, if it "says" Gibson, Fender or Martin it gets your attention…
Poor sound quality! Should be an important part of a guitar review. Fan noise during the interview, peaking during the guitar playing. Good info I suppose but man, need a decent sound guy.
You need to work on distilling the information into small packets. To much fluf. Get to the point
I miss my booming cannon on my previous DCPA4, this was a something else
I now have a d35 reimagined and a d45 reimagined, what a difference 6 months make
I have a 1988 Martin Shenandoah 12-string. it is quite nice.., and kept in amazing condition.
Too much Martin.
I wish my only issue was which one to choose.
