Probably the classic sound most people search for  in acoustic guitars.    And ...... MAPLE !!!!!

Very cool!  Justin is a fantastic guitar player.  I met him a few years ago at the summer Namm Show, and he was as nice as he could be to me.

Ah, that is why they go for 30, 40, 50......>>>>>>>>>

My old 37 L-0 getting new strings has just become ...urgent! (Though it will never sound like that one above, but maybe......close.....)

I wonder if Marty or someone knows the story with those adornments. Who did it? And when?

I mean, maybe even John Carter knows, but it was probably done before he was born.

I like to think John was sitting around with his Case Stockman yellow handle pocketknife and put those little diamonds in it himself....

I play like that (in my dreams)!……………I imagine that guitar may have been passed-around at many of the guitar jams at Johnny and June’s house.   Marty likely has some stories about the guitar.  Great stuff!  Thank you!

Marty has opened a museum with some of his collection in Mississippi.  I'm going to run down and visit it one of these days. I've always heard that he has been collecting for many, many decades and I'd think it would be worth the admission.

It doesn’t get any better than that…absolutely stunning!! Thanks Murph 😎
