What's the story?

Location: South of most, North of few | Sorry Andrea, the Mermer is sold and gone. Give me a call when you get in town.
Brad, the seller got a partial payment back from UPS, and I ended up buying it from him at a reduced rate, then took it to the local Martin repair shop to have it fixed. It should be near new when I get it back.
Beggin, I think it's just buy, buy, buy, now.
I'll post some pics when they all get here. |

Location: Slightly northwest of Trader Jim | Trader Jim stopped by the shop today with his newly repaired Martin CEO. The luthier that did the work did a fantastic job. I looked it over, but could not tell where it had been broken. I was really impressed with the brightness of the high end sound. The last Martin that I played really didn't impress me, but that CEO sounded great.
(OK Jim that's the best you get for 10 bucks) :D |
