I love the fretboard inlays on the new GPCPA2 & the DCPA1 but was just wondering is there much difference in the sound between the GPCPA3 Grand Performance and the DCPA3 Dreadnaught model? I'm new to the Acoustic World, I own 3 Electrics.
If you go to MelodeeMusic in Leesburg VA, don't believe anything he says. He'll say whatever will get you buy inventory that isn't moving if he thinks he can fool you. I have short fingers & he convinced me that a wider neck is easier to play with short fingers & I spent 2 hrs there & ended up spending over a grand on a Martin that has the widest neck they make.
Over priced guitars. There are many guitar companies that make an equal, if not better quality/sounding guitar than Martin for a fraction of the cost. Larrivee is one, and there are alot more.
Being a left handed player, it's quite hard to find nice guitars. My Martin is among one of my favorites in my collection, would recommend one to anybody! Undeniable tone and playability, with a decent guitarist behind one of these bad boys there's no going wrong.
ive been a martin guy ever scince i started playing, and ive realized that every marin guitar is different because every intruremeent is almost completely built by hand. if you live on the northeren east cost, i sugest that you gi to there factory in Nazerath PA. its amazing
I was playing my Taylor K26ce last night, and I have a new DMSM on the way. The Taylor sound just doesn't cut it for me anymore........ so I'm going to cancel the DMSM and get one of these!
when i win the lottery iam going to blow her out and move to carlsbad and just buy the fucking lot, a house near the beach a martin and run and play free till the end!! amen

hi! so how am i supposed to know what kind of coating is on a guitar im checking out at the store? [i didnt understand..again- what kind is good? and what kind is bad?]. And p.s- does it really matter? cause at the end, u just listen to the sound the guitar makes..so if its good, u just take it ? :]
ask the shop. glossy finishes are usually poly and are on most low end guitars. everyone reckons nitro sound better, but there are great guitars with poly finishes.
if it sounds good to you, buy it, im a bit of a traditionalist, and if you like it, dont listen to anyone else.
If you play bluegrass, you play a Martin. If you play in a praise band, you play a Taylor. This new Martin series should compete well against the Taylor. The video under-emphasized the awesome-ness of the electronics being digital samples of 9 world class microphones, since the main goal of an electrified acoustic is to still sound like an acoustic. I love my Martin D28 with a Schertler pickup.
2.that whole reflective covering that the guitar has [that makes it shine], doesnt it make the sound kinda die? comparing to some Takamine guitars that has no coating like that [straight up wood], and the sound vibrates nicely?
3.ehh...i prefer the horizontal Martin logo.. heh..just saying :]
I'm with you! I hate all this shit that guitar manufacture are doing like the robot guitar or the fender strat that has sounds built in. All I'm I'm saying is that if I wanted my strat to sound like a 12 string I would buy a real damn 12 string. haha
Problem is that I live in the EU, where every price is stuffed with VAT, so a $1000 guitar suddenly becomes a €1000 guitar. I now have the cheapest full-size Taylor I could get, and I love it. I would like to have a D-16, and if possible a D-28.
I'll have to check one of those out! Sounds like it would be an incredible guitar. I'm still using my old '74 Alvarez (aka "my beater") and it's definately seen better days.
jesus there's a d-100 in the back ($110,000)

Any full gloss (top sides and back) Martin is still nitrocellulose lacquer.
A Martin with a gloss top and satin back & sides is a catalyzed lacquer.
Martin doesn't use poly finish, and never has, but I would never say "never" to what may be down the road.
