You should check out next year's MartinFest over at UGMF. Bob Hamilton and Todd Yates bring some of the most amazing pre-war Martins, along with several other folks - and they are very generous in allowing attendees play them. Then you know what the pre-war buzz is about. Song circles, jams, and open mics a plenty and sometimes special guest artists like Lawrence Juber or Jack Lawrence.
Here is a peek at some of Bob's pre-war D 28's. This does not include some amazing D 18's, OM and 000 models.
