(after an Ovation nylon . . and a bass), My next guitar WILL be a Martin . . .
Tim;
I would assume that "Goldie" is down in Fla.
The reso on the wall is a Phillips . . . |

And the way the guitars have aged is pretty good too! ;)
It is the jams that are the best part of this whole thing. |

What model Ovation is that in the third picture?
I saw Glen Campbell play one that looked very similar. He said on stage that it had a graphite neck. It was the only time I've seen one.
BTW; Nice Martins. After the first of the year I'm going to look for a 000. |

Nice guitars.
The one in the picture is one of their "parlor" models.
Nice, smooth, smoky tone to it. A bit softer than a Nat'l.
(at least that's my "take" from the one that I played . . .)
Bill can expound better than I (once he stops the car). |

Jason was picking up his new Adamas and seemed very happy to get it. I got to play a few special items - Jason's Acadamy, the Hamer Redwood Prototype (a little GAS brewing) and my favorite - the Centennial guitar. I had my 2005 collector's with me. |
