I'll admit to being a Martin fan boy, but IMHO of the major manufacturers, it's the best overall sound and tone.I have always wanted a Martin, but really, I already have too much tied up in guitars (and amps) to justify it.
how about Paul Reed Smith guitars? I dont play so I dont know. I was at a fund raiser for Sandy's old school, and I guess his (PRS) kids went there and he made guitars for Carlos Santana, one of Carlos signed models went for $16,000 that night. I thought wow.I'll admit to being a Martin fan boy, but IMHO of the major manufacturers, it's the best overall sound and tone.
Playability maybe not so much....out of the box the action is super high for Bluegrass style playing, but that is easily rectified. Still, I find the playability of, say, Taylors, to be better.
Still....just nothing like that Martin tone.
I'll confess to never having played one. They make acoustic guitars, but are mostly known for their electric guitars.how about Paul Reed Smith guitars? I dont play so I dont know.
