Hey Charlene,
You own 2 prestigious "MARTIN GUITAR", you lucky woman you. They must sound great. I know Gords Martin sounds awesome, especialy noticed it on the Reno concert, when he begins,"Baby Step Back". And of course in the Moncton concert I attented. In the Halifax concert I was, he was at that time still using a 6 string, which was probably hand crafted for him. He used that guitar quite a bit on TV specials and all.There's a good picture of GL with it, on the back of the album Gord's Gold Vol 2. Do you know anything about that guitar like who built it for him? I heard some years ago on TV that a Charlottetown Luthier built one for him. Dont know how true this is. I myself have owned since I started playing when I was 13 years of age, about 22 guitars. Today I own only one, sold most of them and traded a few, as the years went by. Only a hobby for me, cant sing a note.Although there was a time when I taught I could sing exactly like Gordon Lightfoot,"IN MY DREAMS" LOL. There are some that I sold that I wish I didn't. The best one I ever owned was a "Epiphone Hummingbird". Get me started yapping on guitars and it's hard to stop. But I will stop.
