And I've bought five new Martins in the last three years, so I have some experience with them.

w/re. to cuts, that's a whole different subject, but I have little doubt we would agree on that subject either

But yes, with regard to the lower Martins, as I said, and as Wade said, there are number of design elements that make the lower end Martins....lesser. I have to go, it's a beautiful autumn day in Santa Fe. Chili is in peak season.
yes, but 'why' does it make a difference is the question?....you are talking about where the headstock is attacked to the neck right?...so if you make that a different way, it affects the tone?...i simply don't buy it....but that doesn't exactly mean much If you are talking about where the neck is attached to the body, then I can understand that a bit more I think....since that is in direct contact with the guitar body.
