This is both informative and enlightening. And you are two extraordinarily gifted guitarists. Maybe after a few thousand years of practice we'll be able to play half as well as you gentlemen. Keep up the great work, and thanks for this exceptional exploration of Martin body sizes!

Yes, there are expensive, but: it’s a great investment! And they’re magic. I’m playing for almost 50 years now, owning various brands and I’m just swapping my Taylor for a Martin. Martin simply has an unparalleled unique sound. Period. Thx for the explanation.

Sir, great video and fun to watch. I have a OO-18 and love it. Great guitar, I wanted to mention when you showed the OM-21 you forgot to explain the difference in the pick guard over the others as well. No big deal but it’s one of the first things you see right! It’s tear drop, and that shape of guard usually de-notes an OM model.

What model is your Dad's guitar, the serial number is on the inside of guitar stamped on neck, my advice would be to get the guitar appraised, your best bet would be Gruhn Guitars in Nashville Tennessee, he is one of the best, you have a prewar Martin, It could be worth alot more than than you think, prewar Martin's are very collectable, you need it appraised for insurance value, some are very valuable, talk to George Gruhn he will give you the best advice on what your guitar is worth, for insurance or resale value, hope this helps, GOOD LUCK!

OMs are great. If you want then with the smoothness of an OOO, you can tune them down half/one step an put a capo on the first/second fret - you can even put heavy gauge strings on. Works great with every long scale to achieve that slinky feel and softer tone.

When primarily acoustic players hear that Martin created the SC to be comfortable and easy to play for electric players who are used to these qualities... what do you do with that? I imagine some might think, "oh those spoiled electric players" but also others have to think, "wait, i can play something... Comfortable? That's an option?"

Firstly great and informative video. However, for the interviewer - perhaps less of interjecting and completing the sentence of the Martin rep. Let him finish speaking and avoid revealing the specs, etc before the rep introduces it. That's why the rep is there. If you all want to do the talking, start another video where you guys teach about Martin guitars instead. Other than that great production.
