Review: Plays and sounds great ! - Excellent guitar. So happy I chose this one. All wood. Sounds and plays amazing. It’s a Martin ! Love the gig bag it came with !
Review: Auto tuner DOA - Arrived with the auto tuner DOA. Almost sent it back but played it a little and decided to keep it as the setup was good and the sound was great. I wasn't going to use the tuner anyway since I use a Snark tuner which has been very accurate. The Fishman electronics work great, but I'll need to change out those Martin strings which are to heavy and squeaky. UPDATE! Got the tuner working and with new strings it sounds excellent! 5 STARS!!
