Nothing better... 0 people found this helpfulWhat better than a vintage Martin? Style 3 looks great, are cheaper than the graal Style 5 and just sound amazing. À big preference for Style 3K because Koa sound so great. Don't think, just Buy IT !!!

awesome style 3 0 people found this helpfulIf you've played one of the newer martins, don't even use that as a point of comparison. These martins that are from the 20's if properly preserved are in a special class of their own. They embody a different era. Different in quality, in sound and make for something special. These style 3's are virtually impossible to find now, so don't let it slip
