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.
