Re: We're all Martin lovers here so what's your go to Martin(s) and what do you play  (reply)
My '66 D-28 Bone Conversion is my #1 and gets most of my 6 string time. The 12 string of choice currently is my D12-20. The '49 D-28 gets out a couple times a week still but the top 2 get 90% of the playing time.
