Dan Gawry replied to Ben's discussion Advice wanted on stabilizing guitar while playing (fingerstyle, not classical)"Two things I have tried and still use one of the two. One is to get that perforated rubberized shelf liner,(comes in a roll) An instructor i met uses that. The other thing i did was peel the soft fabric off a mouse pad and just use the rubber…"
Dan Gawry replied to Lee Cherney's discussion Martin MTV-1 guitar in the group Martin Owners"Hi Martin, Just so happens that just prior to reading your message I came upon your e-bay listing. Really wish I had that much available, especially as you described how well taken care of it is. The one I am looking at is kept in its case in a…"

Dan Gawry replied to Lee Cherney's discussion Martin MTV-1 guitar in the group Martin Owners"HIi KP, Hope all is well. Recently ordered a Vintage Guitar Price Guide and looked up the MTV line. Seems the MTV-1 has a value range of1100-1400. Still haven't budged Mr Grumpy yet, although I did inform him that he wasn't hanging on to a…"
Dan Gawry replied to Jody's discussion What Body Size? in the group Martin Owners"Hi all. Luv this site. I have 2 dreads but for about a year now I am haunted by a 000 that's at my local Guitar Ctr and it's the Eric Clapton signature series 000M. When I go there I pluck around with all the dreads, and then I grab this…"
Lou replied to Dan Gawry's discussion Looking for info on MTV! Martin"I believe you could be referring to a Martin MMV which I also believe was produced for Musicians Friend. It's a nice guitar, I've tried it and have seen it used for $500.00 to 600.00 price range. If you want to waste your breath, tell the…"
Dan Gawry replied to Dan Gawry's discussion Looking for info on MTV! Martin"Yesterday I ordered the Vintage Guitar price book. Gonna take it to this fella and open his eyes a tad. He also Has a Martin that was custom made and is accompanied by an evaluation slip that gives it a value of 4000.00. I haven't even bothered…"
John Gundrum replied to Dan Gawry's discussion Looking for info on MTV! Martin"Dan,
I am referring to MTV in who cut to a correspondant in the middle of the song being performed. It was totally rude, inconsiderate and disrespectful.
The MTV-1 guitar was only produced in 1996. The MTV-2 was produced 2003 and 2004. The…"
Dan Gawry replied to Dan Gawry's discussion Looking for info on MTV! Martin"Thanx for the reply. Whom are you referring to in last sentence? And i agree about owner. He thinks he's sitting on a 4000.00 piece there and I don't think I'm even gonna bother showing him your numbers,even tho i totally believe your…"
Dan Gawry replied to Lee Cherney's discussion Martin MTV-1 guitar in the group Martin Owners"Good stuff KP. If I follow your advice and I am leaning towards doing so,it just so happens there is ONE that absolutely knocks me out. It resides at local Guitar Ctr, and hs been there for 2 yrs now. Despite my limited ability, when i go in and…"
Dan Gawry replied to Lee Cherney's discussion Martin MTV-1 guitar in the group Martin Owners"KP, that was invaluable to me. If he ever finds out I doubt that i'll get it as I don't have the available funds for that size investment. You seem very knowledgeable so maybe you could answer a question for me. How different is the sound…"
John Gundrum replied to Dan Gawry's discussion Looking for info on MTV! Martin"Maybe not as rare as led to believe. Vintage Guitar lists the "MTV Unplugged Edition" MTV-1 as from 1996 and the price range in the 2010 guitar is $1,100 to $1,400. I wouldn't hold my breath for this one if the guy chuckled at $1,000.…"
Dan Gawry replied to Lee Cherney's discussion Martin MTV-1 guitar in the group Martin Owners"Soooo, has anyone any idea what one should pay for an MTV1 that has been sitting in a pawn shop for 2yrs,not on display, and upstairs in an unheated room above the pawn shop. Owner is gettin up in years and not a player, has no idea what to charge…"
