I don't think they sounded the exact same when they were new but I agree with the last part of your statement. I think most would agree Martin has made some serious mistakes. The good thing is they and others are trying to build them like the old ones. Some of the best guitars I've played were over 70 years old but like I said in an earlier post some of the worst I've played were 30-40 years old.
