If Martin made...............

Post by Taylor614 »

a laminate version of the DM3MD, would you buy it? I mean if had the solid Englemann spruce top and abalone rosette, but laminate rosewood back and sides. I think I would, but probably wouldn't play it much.

no... it would be an insult to Dave to make a signture that was laminated.

All i mean is, Martin doesn't make his signature anymore, so for people that couldn't get that, they could get something that looks like it and has some of the same specs. I don't think it would be an insult because I'm sure we would see many being sold and that would show how popular Dave is.

its making a lower quality form though, and thus not being "daves guitar"

I definitely see that as being an insult... and an assault. If anything, I'd say Martin would be screwing themselves over, not screwing Dave over.. They're the ones who built the damn thing.

i dont like laminate so i wouldnt buy it. i dont think id buy a dm3md if i had the chance anymore, i used to think it was the coolest fucking thing ever, but i dont want anyone to associate my original stuff with another artist, ill have my own guitar and my own sound

some day they'll be a AMD-35
