I currently own 3 Martins and looking back, I've always owned at least one.

I had to check the "I don't own a Martin" box but if you had a "Currently shopping for my first Martin" I would've checked that one.

When I have tried to divest myself of all Martins, I begin very quickly, to look for my next Martin. No matter how many guitars I have, I seem to need my ratio to be about 50% Martin. Once bitten........

I own guitars that, on an intellectual basis, I know are better guitars than my Martins. But, picking up the Martin is like putting on a perfectly broken in pair of shoes. Instantly comfortable. Martins just seem to want to get along with you and accommodate whatever you want to do with no argument or pushback. Doubt I'll ever be without one for the rest of my life.

Do Martin mandolins count? I have one Martin guitar, but a couple Martin mandolins... I know, I know: it should be the other way around!

I'm definitely a Martin guy. But I currently don't own any Martin's so I had to vote that way! You should have had a category for that one!!

none of the above:


I've had a handful of martins (000-15, 000-15M, D-15M, DRS1).

I love Martin (especially hog)

I don't own any Martins now but I love Martins and CFM & Co
