"Best Investment I've ever made."

Feature:
Came with excellent case.

Quality:
Martin has a lifetime warranty, that speaks for itself. I make my living with music, and this guitar has sparked new enthusiasm. We (Martin & me) perform live and in the studio.

Value:
I predict this guitar to double in value, when the Aura technology is used and understood by other professional musicians.

Desirability:
The beauty of the Martin sound acoustically are matched through the PA without feedback.

Sound:
The sound is Martin Great! Clean, clear, vibrant.

Ease of Use:
This is a new concept that requires a learning curve. It took a little reading of the instructions, to understand the "blend" of "Aura" and the "Pickup" but worth the trip. The instructions are very clear.

Support:
I previously owned a Martin guitar. It was damaged during a performance in New Orleans. I mailed the guitar to Nazereth, PA and they repaired promptly.

Overall:
Lifetime Investment.
