Testimonials

Jon & Sharon,

Just a brief note to say how incredibly happy I am with your Custom 00-28V. In addition to your great service and willingness to work with me to get the deal right, the guitar you sent turns out to be just about the finest new custom Martin I've had (and I've had a few, as your records alone will show). This amazing guitar is head and shoulders above most of the guitars my friends and I have A/Bd against it. You've got a real winner here and I consider myself fortunate to now own one. It's a Keeper!

My best,
-- Jim M.

Play Audio - "GE14FRET"

This guitar is a OOO-18 Golden Era that we special order through the CFM Custom Shop with an Ambertone 1933 finish. For this reason, the neck block is stamped "Custom." It is the EXACT same guitar otherwise. We get these in one or two a month and they are usually pre-sold so order yours now! We are allowed to advertise ACTUAL PRICES on all Custom Shop guitars.
IMPORTANT! IT "APPEARS" LIKE OUR AMBERTONE GUITARS ARE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS LESS THAN OUR STANDARD SERIES SUNBURST GUITARS -- THIS IS BECAUSE WE ARE REQUIRED TO ADVERTISE PRODUCTION GUITARS AT MAP OR MINIMUM ADVERTISED PRICE - BUT WE ARE ALLOWED TO ADVERTISE CUSTOM SHOP GUITARS (LIKE OUR AMBERTONE GUITARS) AT ACTUAL PRICES!
