Very nice. Extremely versatile guitar, enjoy every note.

Lovely! What is a “treated lifespan?”

They are coated strings.... Martin's answer to Elixr strings. I have used and liked them.

I'm a huge fan of the 000 size, and it's hard to beat a good Martin. Nicely done!

I haven’t played either the 000-28 or the OM-28. Wondering if you considered both and if so what made you choose the short scale.
Congratulations on a beauty. Enjoy it in good health!

That’s a really nice looking guitar. Play on.

I bought an OM35 in 2007 and added a custom 000 12 fret with three piece mahogany back and sides in 2015. Every person who is serious about playing fingerstyle needs one of each.

Yeah, I went back and forth. Would love one of each! Chose the 000 because of ease of playing. I have a D18 I'm selling for the same reason. Besides being bigger than I need the long scale is just more tension and more effort.

Has improved even since I posted this message.
