  • 🎸 Elevate your guitar skills with exclusive guitar lessons & tips at JustinJohnsonGu... Whether you're picking up a guitar for the first time or looking to master advanced techniques, I'll share with you everything I've learned in my guitar journey 🎸
    Martin Guitars invited me to their private Nashville Showroom and sent me home with their newest release, the SC-13E. At the time, the guitar was not in production yet, and the design was still very secretive, with all of it's brand new innovations, top secret design elements, and patents pending. It's just been released, so I wanted to share the moment of those first impressions, and also share it's sound, once I got it back to my home studio. Enjoy!

    Hi, I'm from Russia and I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you very much, you are a great player and I am one of the many (which I do not doubt) who are inspired by you and try to imitate you a little. Thank you again. After all, the most important thing in life is to play the Blues correctly.

    Wow. Martin really stepped out of the box to create something awesome for blues players, and others obviously. But I love the creativity. If anyone can be trusted to do it right it's Martin. I bet the head stock doesn't crack in ten years - like Gibson, and lows and mids are just as present as highs, unlike Taylor. Dovetail shoved into the body - that's unheard of! They keep pushing the envelope. They took a step in the early 2000s with the OMCRE, where you could change the action higher and lower on the fly without changing the tuning - genius! Now this. Good job Martin. Longest family owned business in American history and it shows.
