Of the dozens of songs I've written, I've recorded about 50 on CDs and given away to friends. I doubt that anyone would ever want to record any of my songs but if some tone-deaf recording artist thinks one of my songs is worth stealing I've got quite a few people that have heard them on my CDs, at open mics or around riverside campfires as witnesses.

I think you could make money with "Pistol Don" and some others. JMO
Bill Haley and the Comets Rock around the clock.
It looks great Russ. Super job!
No,no arguing for sure. What ever it was, it's junk now. I have it restrung and it's all but un playable. I am ready to return it to it's owner along with a First Act that I have so his grand daughter will have something to beat on.
Thanks to zguitar and his link, it could very well be a Harmony from the Forties or Fifties. I did not find the exact model but I did find some with the same tail piece and some with the same type Headstock. Some even had the sticker that said "Steel Reinforced Neck" but none of the stickers were shaped like this one.By the way, Steel reinforced evidently doesn't necessarily mean adjustable. I find no way to adjust this. That is not a truss rod cover, only a sticker. Anyway, this thing would be good deco for a Cafe or other. The top is sunk in almost as deep as the saddle. Something heavy must have been sitting on it for a while. I am still going to string it and see if it will play.
It is made of several pieces of wood glued together under great pressure. After it is cured the neck is cut from this material as I understand it. It makes for a very strong neck and I think the finished appearance is attractive and unique. Many don't like it.

I always go by the theory that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. A martin anything(besides a back packer) for 250.00 sounds too good to be true. Does anybody out there have any experience with one of these. I have bought some bad guitars before because they were major brands ( fender, gretsch), and I don`t want to make the same mistake 3 times. I am sure martin has made a few lemons in their time.I`m wondering if this is one of them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
That is less than half of what they sell for around here. I considered one because most of the reviews I could find were favorable but I opted for my copy.

Excuse me for being late but hello from Louisiana.
Congratulations on your NGD. Watch out for NELA! He will try to claim it. My son has a DCX1E and it has great sound for the price but I haven't played a Taylor in that price range to compare it to. The main thing is that your happy with it. Enjoy it.
Oh you know the rules right? Pictures please.

I have a reciept you outlaw!!! Where in the world have you been anyway? I thought you might have died and I missed a chance to get a half day off to be a Pall bearer.

Thanks Amy. I'll make a note of that.

Makes sense to me! I bought on Saturday so I guess I would be exempt anyway.
Thanks folks. And it sounds fantastic.
I hope this one is it for a while.(So does the Mrs.) Blueridge BR70. It is a Martin D-41 copy with a $3,500 cheaper price tag. Not a Martin but very very nice.
I have 2 song books, at least 300 songs that I play well enough to not be afraid to do in public.Not a note of music in either book, but take my words and chords away and I could probably do you 3 songs at the most.Oh! I still mess up sometimes with the book.
Good wishes. Don't forget us on CHORDIE.
Thanks Cam.I appreciate everyones replies. A good weekend to all.
