I would have loved to be a fly on the wall in the meeting when this idea was pitched. I'm sure like any company, there are old school guys who don't like change, as well as guys who are all about change, and then there is always the guys who always pitching wildassed off the wall stuff.I believe this fits in the latter group.
As far as using Low for the top layer,and still trying to.but a price point, I would guess it has something to do with the timing of its release around the NAMM event.
Although it ticks no boxes for me,,,( I'm between the first group and the second group from above),,,I'm sure it will bring some new consumers into the Martin fold.
And when The Guitar Emporium in Louisville Ky gets one in, I will have to try it out.
