This has become the best guitar gear channel on the internet. Lee is a national treasure.
Ha ha - I’ll take that 👍
What nation though?
@@Timthecommenter guitar nation?
An international treasure!
God Save the Captain 🇬🇧🫡
1. I watch an Anderton's video at Martin factory.
2. I visit Martin's website.
3. I find a new Martin guitar.
3. I buy a new Martin guitar.
4. I happy.
Funny how that works. 😁😁😁
Gee, I don't even have to visit the factory or watch a video and that happens somehow......
I have watched 1 hour long tours of this same factory and been bored, where here I was thoroughly interested the entire 2 and half hours. Great job.
The people at Martin seem like the nicest people I’ve ever seen. Every single one of them. It’s amazing to watch. Not that the people at Gibson and PRS during the tours weren’t nice, but these people at Martin are next level. The world needs more Martin people.
As with the PRS and Gibson tour videos, American manufacturing and craftsmanship at its finest! Great job to Lee and the Anderton's team! These have all been fantastic videos!
@captainslickrules Lee, your childlike excitement in a guitar factory is so cool. From the smell of wood to the bloom of a power chord, you rep dad rock and childlike enthusiasm better than anyone on the internet
Thanks man - it’s a dream job for me!
It is really great to get the craftmen and craftwomen interaction. These are the people that get the work done and it's a wonderfull chance to ear them talk about their knowledge and craftmenship.
Best Martin video! a live a few hours from there.... I visit often.... It's like guitar heaven there...
Martin guitar tours and entry into the museum are free. Worth every minute you spend there.
I gotta go! Where is it?
Martin Guitar is located in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. It is in the Lehigh Valley about an hour drive north from Philadelphia.
I did the tour years ago. Highly recommend even for non players.
I’m thoroughly enjoying this. I first bought a guitar from Andertons in 1974. I first bought a Martin in 2001. This video production brings credit both to Andertons and to Martin. Thank you :-)
After watching just about every guitar factory tour, this has to be the best hands down. Just amazing!
As Lee says throughout, brilliant! That Stauffer at the end is stunning. Please, Martin, make more.
Recently got my first Martin - 000-15M - it feels and looks incredible and seeing how they’re made really illustrates how it came to be that way. Such care and craftsmanship. Amazing. Great video!!
I love that beautiful part of PA. And my Martin still smells delicious years later.
I've been fortunate enough to have been through the Martin factory and museum twice; this is by far the best video tour in the internet. Great job by The Captain and crew!
I love these factory tours ! ❤
Good job Lee! Great video. Thanks for posting.
I’ve been waiting for this to drop for months. Worth the wait.
I live only two miles from the factory and was totally excited when I heard that you toured the plant. I've toured the plant many times and am always impressed by the craftsmanship and final product. I have a few friends that work there and one of them showed us her amazing skill in shaping the bracing.
I love your channel and and the amazing videos that you produce. However, I believe this is arguably the best one you have done to date.
Martin is an amazing company and it was quite evident you felt blown away with your tour.
The town of Nazareth and the surrounding area has a ton of history and beautiful landscape. I hope you had the opportunity to enjoy even a little bit of the charm of the area and hope you come back again... the factory tour never gets old.
Regards,
Chris
fantastic to document this important part of the Martin story for generations , thanks so much guys !
That was amazing my fRiend has a 1922 Martin and a 1918 . I live in Pennsylvania and have never been there . thank you lee and god bless
Thank you Martin I had my Martin D 15 M. Love it. ❤❤❤
I absolutely love what Martin is doing!
Mindbogglingly epic. Thank you so much for that.
This was very cool to watch. I have a 1971 D-18 that I bought in 1971 at 11yrs old and I've been in love with Martin guitars since. I also bought a D-12 20 about 25 years ago and would love to take a tour of where both of them were made.
This was pure gold!
One of, if not the best and certainly the most comprehensive behind the scenes of the Martin factory. Great work 👍
Cool tour !!
This is great, absolutely loved it.
I took the Martin factory tour in the mid-1970s. I realize it's been a half-century, but it's night and day. EVERYTHING was done by hand back then. That quality is still the first priority, which is why Martin is still the premier producer of acoustic guitars. I met Helmut Schaller, the founder of Schaller Hardware, in the museum hat day. He was selling a prototype acoustic guitar pickup system. My luthier bought three of those funky solid-body guitars because they were scrapping them. If you ever get the chance to take the tour, DO IT! That part of Pennsylvania is absolutely gorgeous.
This has been an amazing, informative series.
Lee, these guitar shop videos are top drawer man. I could feel your excitement in the Gibson shop video.
I'm going watch this video later this aft. I don't have the time right now.
Thank you, Lee, for this exceptional and informative video of the Martin plant. As a purchaser of dozens of Martin guitars over my long life, and the current owner still of ten of their products, this video has given me an even better appreciation for the quality of their instruments. Not a day goes by that I don’t pick up at least one of their guitars to enjoy the sound coming from its body. This video was time well spent. Again, thank you so much for taking the time to bring this video to your followers.
Very nice and clean factory. Looks much better than usual in the US. Great instruments.
Absolutely loved this from start to finish!!
As someone who build guitars as a hobby and a passion, it is so nice to see them shape a neck the same way I do. So cool,
Fascinating and inspiring.
Looking forward to the custom shop special run fish'n'chip series!
Wow! You were right around the corner! Wish i knew!
Absolutely amazing. Made me want one even more. 👍
Thank you guys so much for coming and for this video. You stopped at nearly every station and gave love to some not very glamorous jobs. 1:53:12 Thank you for the work you do on this channel.
I don’t comment often but holy cow you guys made the best guitar content (imo) on you tube with this film. It’s epic. I have watched it over 3 days start to finish and I think i will go back to the start.
this is immense love these type vids man
Above all guitar makers, I can really see why the Martin acoustic guitar is worth the money they are just amazing
yess!!! ELECTRIC guitars -- bring them back Martin!!
Fascinating! Think I need a Martin now.
My D-28 and 0-18 are two of the best guitars I own. Martin really is an amazing company.
I enjoyed watching this
Really nice footage of the overall operation ! From the original factory to the new one ! And well done Lee on you getting away with murder on that neck 😅😅😅
Big money for those custom builds!! Brilliant tour ,very informative
Martin Lx1 all day. Best guitar from Martin in my opinion. So comfortable to play and very boomy for the size with some Earthwood acoustic strings. Would love to purchase LXM, it’s more durable from weather changes.
They're made in Mexico are they not ?
@@benallmark9671 they are. Which is probably why they are more “affordable”.
This is amazing
watched the whole thing. Didn't check my phone once! What a fascinating video ☺
these are the best videos ever!
Yes they should try electrics again. Good video by the way. (I watched it in parts) looks like genuine nice and passionate people. I loved every part of it. The best tour.
Brilliant video. I loved Lee carving the neck.
I remember going to this Guitar tour is awesome and it was free at the time. I think that was like 10 years ago
Fantastic video absolutely brilliant
This is SO cool 👌
42:57 the finishing on that guitar 🤯
I’ve visited the Martin factory a little over a year ago and it was a lot of fun. If you haven’t checked it out, you should try to, it’s fun for any guitar enthusiast. I won two Martins as well and they are beautiful guitars.
@32:13 it also looks like a shelf full of Andertons logos. Thanks for the tour(s)!
I was thinking the same thing when Lee said I should take credit for this.
We need to see an Andertons tour of your facilities and shop now!!!
Great vídeo!
I'm in love with the 5-18 Terz model. Give my comment a like if you'd also love to see an affordable version in their 2025 catalog
I love guitars and interesting cars😊.
So good thank you 🤟😎🍻💯🔥
thank you, this is like having christman and birthday on one day!
Thank you Captain, crew and fine staff at Martin for this great video. Not sure how I can buy anything from Anderton to help support but thanks for your work. I ordered 3 Sire guitars tonight and you videos allowed me to do my research. Black Sire H7V, black L7 (cuz the H7V has P-90's and the L7V has too much white) and T7FM in blue. All left hand, long build time but I'm ok with it.
Just finished watching this ( I have it on while cooking - it’s taken two days ) This series has been amazing to watch and super insightful, I’ve watched them all. Any chance of a similar smaller series of British builders ? Gordon Smith, PJD, Patrick Eggle etc
Absolute artisans. The amount of hand work is amazing, while still being state of the art. You really see where your money is going. And no jewelry to damage the instruments unlike video I’ve seen of Gibsons.
Gread job Lee
Lee you are amazing my.......friend..!!!!
I was first at last !! ❤❤❤
It's embarrassing how many times Lee references PRS, this is The premier guitar factory.. I'm sure they groaned every time
Amazing! I love Americanand European factory where art and craftsmanship are so free to express as opposed to certain Asian factory where all have the same uniform and are like soldiers👌🏻…
Wow...A Pity Ben wasn't im this one...He would have flipped...Brilliant Vid Lee
Amazing...what a wall of prototypes !!!!!!
I love these factory tours… Had you thought of going to smaller UK manufacturers and luthiers to give a comparison of scale and production values? Obviously the smaller companies can’t compete on scale, but can often do better in detailing (inlays etc) and quality control. Just a thought - could be fun!
Also, if you went to Crimson in Dorset, you could have a look at the Dorset Guitar Museum…
Nice
I’ve always wanted a Martin electric
I used to work right across from their corporate headquarters . I live 45 minutes from martin and I've never been.
I like these types of videos but it would be great to see stuff like Fujigen in Japan or maybe Yamaha, or Deusenburg. Perhaps other companies than just the big 4 American brands (Fender, Gibson, PRS and Martin). Just a thought.
My step father is a direct relative To C.F Martin, has the last name, he even resembles him. He is a very talented craftsman who excels at everything he does and i have convinced him, that this summer, by his name right, We are going to build a solid body electric Guitar. I will own an electric guitar, made, by a Martin.
My D 28 Custom was born in Feb 2014... it just turned 10 years old!!! Call me the second owner... it just RINGS°🎵🎶🎵
Finally
Fire that dude that did the tour.
I wonder if you guys can visit an epiphone factory and a Gretsch factory in Japan
The ends of those necks at 32:30 look like hundreds of Andertons logos!
Lee, you have to build a guitar now with that martin neck
Me 2 !!!!
When will you guys post a video of the Martin museum?
PS: Did you ask them about Brazilian Rosewood?
When are you doing Andertons warehouse and store?
@ 1:23:50 Who knew that Johnny Depp worked at Martin Guitars?!! lol-in' out loud!
"limited edition we did for" and the rest was cut off. He was talking about the aluminum inlay.
Must be like Wonka's for Lee.
This was cool to watch especially because Gus is my uncle
the guy on neck fitting wore a Mesa Boogie shirt.
Just imagine if Gibson had this attention to detail and quality mindset!
I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' 'bout half past dead.
