Nic Clark Plays - The Martin CEO-7 - The Denver Folklore Center
Our good friend Nic Clark stopped by the store to play some of our favorite guitars, to help you get sense of what these incredible guitars sound like with Nic's incredible finger picked blues!
The CEO-7 is perhaps Martin's most consistently controversial guitar, mostly due to its almost Gibson like design, based off a mid 30's L-00 in the best way possible. We absolutely adore this guitar, both for its vintage feel and sound, and for its place in Martin's lineup as the redheaded stepchild in the best way possible.

Tiny and Terrific - Martin DJR-10 - The Denver Folklore Center
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.21 день назад
In the exact opposite of last week, this Martin is extra small! But don't let that fool you into thinking these mini-Martins don't pack a heck of a punch, spoiler alert: they do. With all solid construction (spruce top, Sapele back and sides) and a just-over-¾-scale size, this guitar is surprisingly loud and vocal, making it one of our favorite guitars to play in the store.

Oversized and OOOO-Mazing! Martin Custom 0000-12 String - The Denver Folklore Center

With its oversized body and six extra strings, one would imagine this 12-String from America's oldest guitar builders to be nothing but loud and in your face. Well, it does have volume to spare, but this sunburst beauty has much more nuance than one would expect, with a great, full and responsive tone thanks to its 12-fret-to-the-body construction.

With their rugged all mahogany construction, the 15 series from Martin is consistently one of their highest sellers, drawing direct inspiration from their 15 and 17 labeled guitars from the 1930's on.

From the early run of these guitars, people knew Martin had hit something special: an "as close as possible" run of guitars meant to directly evoke the famous and pearl-clutchingly expensive 30's and 40's guitars that revolutionized the world of vintage acoustic instruments, but made in a modern factory with modern techniques, for modern players. Successful since then, the original run of the t...

Introduced in 1930 as a fancier L-5, this Gibson L-12 certainly lives up to those expectations, with its upgraded Art Deco style inlays, tailpiece, and general vibe. At 17", this guitar is loud and, fascinatingly, was X braced, giving a super loud, deep sound that is unlike a lot of archtops. In near original condition, the replacements are the new Grover tuners, which sit in the place of the i...

    Great playing. Certainly looking at getting one. Maybe a touch nervous about them being made partially in China, but Eastman is great. How would you say the tone compare to the all American built ones? I haven't found a straight up comparison when it comes to the tone. They look the part, do they sound the part. That might make the price better or even a steal.
