Just a thought.......

In my experience, the lower end Martins don’t always come at the full 40% discount. 15s might be somewhere around 35%. Also, in my experience, Elderly isn’t keen to give 40% because they have enough walk-in customers who still don’t know any better and they’re running a full brick and mortar (re, expensive) shop. Maury, MFG, VINTAGE INSTRUMENTS PHILLY are your better bets.
