Met Chris Martin from Martin Guitar
Posted by Loraine on May 17, 2024 at 6:49 pmGot my guitar signed by Chris. Craig Thatcher was there and played guitars from Chris’ personal collection. I would have loved to have met and talked with Craig, but he left right after presentations. What do fantastic artist.

It was a wonderful experience, to be sure. Chris told a lot of history of Martin Guitar , the differences in past Martin family Presidents, the guitars, and when and why developed. The R&D folks explained the process of creativity and challengesħ to continually innovate, and the challenges that they encounter and the solutions.

@Philb We met in where they store all the wood. Look in the background of the photos where Chris Martin and Craig Thatcher are sitting, and behind the photo with all the guitars. All the wood stacked floor to ceiling and all humidity and temperature controlled. Now imagine a warehouse with stacks upon stacks of every imaginable wood. It smelled so good.

A night to remember for sure!his talk about Martin guitars is fun to watch on YouTube but NOTHING could beat the live experience you had.

I agree, and others mentioned the video. I’ll have to watch it. I’m sure he was bound bypassing time at the live event, so there may be additional info in the video.

Hi Jo. It’s really good to hear from you! I miss many from JMG, and I miss the VOMs in general and most of the people, but it was time to move on. I hope you’re doing well. Feel free to message me if you want to catch up. 🙂

Hi again, Loraine,
Where is the best place to message you? Here? JMG? Other? I would like to catch up occasionally. I haven’t been reading these TAC forums – can’t remember what brought me here the other day and I happened to see your post and I’m so glad I did. Let me know the best way to keep in touch!

I just messaged you on TAC. Not sure if you’ll receive a notification on the bell at the top right or not, but if you click on your picture, you should see that you have a message. Now you have to check out the forums here more often!
