The G Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I sold my Gibson SJ Woody Guthrie today. Real sorry to see it go,but economic times dictated that I do so. :( I hymned and hawed about which one of my two remaining acoustics to keep ,and elected to keep my Martin OM-21.Being a Gibson forum I'm sure most will not agree with my choice. I will remain active on this forum even though it hurts to be "Gibsonless". I maintain it is certainly one of the better guitar communities around .

MR GIBS Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Sorry to read that, man... I hope that soon you will be able to have another Gibson in the house. Good luck!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 what made you let the Woody go and Keep the OM 21 ? JC A few things. My Martin has a full lifetime warranty .( Big consideration) Been leaning towards a preference to the 1 3/4 nut width. Ren Ferguson left . Size comfort of the OM model. Just kidding on the third reason.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojorule Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Well it's sad to lose a fully paid up member of the Woody fanclub, but Emeritus status is highly respected. In any case, some fine music has been cut on 21 series Martins. I thought the following might be appropriate, but copyright means that the original is not up on the tube at present, so we'll have to settle for a banjo instead of the Martin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPzRv9mrcvg&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
