The Martin D5 is the best guitar I've ever played hands down in 11 years of playing. I'm amazed at the quality and tone, and the feel of this dream instrument. Martin has a legendary history and the d45 exemlifies the best Martin has to offer. I satdown with this instrument a d played and the high tones were incredible. I want this guitar. Martin, you have my seal of approvel.

I own a taylor 914ce, and it is a great pro quality guitar. But this is something special. In my mind taylor has martin beat until you get past the martin d42. You sure do get what you pay for with this baby, with beautiful crisp highs and deep lows. Martins just get better sounding with time.

You recognise the sound as soon as you play it. Balance between the strings, oustanding solo or rhythm sound. Ease of playing. Always a joy to play and hear. What more can a guitar player want?

I've been playing since 1962 and have owned many fine guitars. This recent purchase is the finest instrument that I have ever owned. After testing several Martin's the sound of the D45 is noticabley better than the other Marins that I tested. I can recommend this guitar to any serious guitar player.

The Ultimate guitar!

I discovered this 1970 model D-45 in a music store in Anchorage, Alaska in 1994. I played it in the "humidity maintained" room for two years before finally affording to buy it. It has traveled with me all over the world and is simply the most resonant, brightest, bassiest guitar money can buy. Top quality yielding years of playing excellence!
