Thanks for the welcome...........I just traded in my Seagull Maritime SWS Rosewood on this Matrtin.  Just don't like dreadnaught bodies.  So now I'm down to an old Seagull S6, two Tanglewoods, a Taylor GS Mini and Miss Martin.

 

Just need to learn how to play now.............

Welcome James,  I have a 1996 16 series cutaway that I bought new.  I have had zero problems and it is by far my favorite guitar.  Happy Playing!

Welcome James, and congrats on your first Martin.  Got my first Martin finally after 60 years - definitely something special!  Enjoy, and post pics!

Thanks Michael. I had posted something here but saw it was the wrong place to post. Here's a neat view of the neck block using an iPhone....check the hide glue....plenty of dust bunnies in there too!! LOL

Very cool guitar! Really good to see so much originality.
Thanks for posting.

I agree with Ken....it amazes me, and I know just a couple people who, like you, no matter how much they have on their plate, seem to be always taking on new projects. It's definitely a big part organizational skills, along with a love for what you do. This is the last photo I'll post....the headstock, which is unusual, and the tuners which are also original.
