Could you please respond and let us know if the brace placement is rear, standard or forward shifted. You list standard but that could refer to the scallop and not placement. Thank you. Beautiful tone.
I have the same girl but in a triple O body shape with a Madagascar back and love her to death, almost as much as I love my wife--though she'll never beat my wife. I finally was able to buy it at my 54th birthday. Long time waiting (decades). I love the quadruple aught and had not heard of this body shape by this name before. I knew it by its other name, M-36. May make it my next trade, maybe in 1937 sunburst and with an adirondack top and Madagascar back when I turn 65 and my kids are all graduated from College and independent. Always dreamed of a dreadnought-sounding smaller Martin guitar in a warm sunburst look. Must continue to work hard and never stop dreaming.
Hi Andrew - I tried a very expensive PRS acoustic at Dave's Guitars in Wisconsin. They look super nice, but I much prefer Martins and Taylors. Superior sound without a doubt.
subisci I would have to disagree. Both are sound boxes with holes in the front and strings attached. In fact, in the grand scheme of life and the universe, they are virtually identical. It looks slightly wider than a dread, more like a Yamaha with a slightly more pinched waist.
Wow, that thing is LOUD. You can't always tell when you're not in the room, but man, I can tell with this one. I love it!
Ian Anderson would be very proud of you Quinton. Beautiful guitar but at that price point I think I'll make do with my standard M-36.
Rich. Rich in every way. Thank you Music Villa.
Beautiful playing. Thank you.
Amazing guitar. Back to my Yamaha now :(
Sounds fantastic!
I’d love to play this guitar in my office at Davis & Main!
If only cliff had jimmy's taste in desk wood for his guitar.

You can go to their website or call the store. To sort through and answer all YT questions would require a lot of work.

For almost $8,000.00 it should look and sound good and it does and does!
Wow
Have you guys thought about reviewing the PRS SE acoustics?

liked the guitar
disliked the price!
Beautiful guitar, wow. Would you compare this body size with a 16 (ie 816, 916) grand symphony Taylor?
You just cannot compare Martins with Taylors... they are completely different beasts!

thom dushane If you think Martins and Taylors are identical, then you know nothing about guitars.
subisci well, I'll admit one thing... I'm no expert at making subtle jokes in youtube comments.
