Model limited edition of 274 copies and I have the No. 44. With its spruce top of the Italian Alps (where the wood products were Sradivarius) at 20 years old Martin, the handle inlay with beautiful quarter moon (Tom Petty album "Full Moon"). That's all simply a work of art.

UTILIZATION

The assembly is so perfect and the handle so right, I did lower the nut to max, but there have to play any frieze. A treat.

SOUNDS

Here we touch the indescribable. It sounds like a martin would have 30 years. Guitar with my friends, we have compared with D41, D42 new .... It kills them.
No need to play hard on this guitar, simply éfleurer strings and it takes the ears. The perfect balance, and a projection terrible .. When my luthier in the grip he has played with ten minutes and ended with the phrase "It's all guitar luthier to dream ..."

OVERALL OPINION

At 50 I had no time to wait for my Martin gets better in 20 years. If you want the "Big Martin's" on, you must pay the price. While the baby at 6000 Euros is not cheap, but what pais.
To be honest when I heard this guitar and not the laiiser spin, I sacrificed for sale a Gibson J 185 and a Gibson 335.
Short as happiness.

Ps: it is not for sale
