GUITARS

HISTORY
Having studied instrument making in the shop of Viennese luthier Johann Stauffer,
Christian Frederick Martin returned to his hometown of Markneukirchen in what is
now eastern Germany. The towns violin makers considered the guitar little more than
furniture and forbade him from hanging out his shingle. Although he was eventually
vindicated, hurt feelings and the death of his father caused him to pack his tools and
immigrate with his wife and two children to the freedom and excitement of the New
World. He arrived in New York City in November 1833 and promptly set up a
thriving music store near what is now the mouth of the Holland Tunnel. Unhappy in
New York, he moved to Nazareth in eastern Pennsylvania in 1839. In this small town
of Germanic immigrants, his exquisitely made instruments evolved to provide the very
definition of the guitar.

Martin guitars have been prized for their tone, consistency, quality, and attention to
handcrafted detail. Professional and amateur musicians in every category of music
hold Martin guitars in high esteem. Among the extensive list of famous musicians who
have owned and played Martin guitars are Elvis Presley, Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan,
Paul Simon, Eric Clapton, Joan Baez, Sting, Johnny Cash, Gene Autry, Hank Williams,
Jimmy Buffett, Jimmy Page, Tom Petty, Willie Nelson, and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.
More than 150 artist signature-model collaborations with many of the eras greatest
guitarists have raised more than a million dollars for the charities of each artists
choosing.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
As the sixth generation of the Martin family to run the business, Chris Martin has
led the company through two and a half decades of unprecedented growth and
success. About the companys current products, he states, The guitars were
building today, I believe, are among the best in our companys history models
for every taste and playing style, from the traditional to the most avant-garde.
When future generations look back at what weve done, I want them to see how
much of our great tradition we have sustained and, at the same time, to see how
boldly we have moved into the future.
