I bought this fine instrument in 2000 and paid $2000 for it. We normally play 5-10 gigs a month. This Martin is the most awesome guitar that a person could want. It has a classic look without being overly forward. It sounded extremely good from the get go. As it has aged, the sound just gets better and better...any style of music. It is loud, which helps with an acoustic band. The set up made sure it played easy and didn't buzz unless it was really picked hard. I would not sell it for what a new one would cost.
