Martin
For over 170 years the C. F. Martin company has produced some of the finest flat-top acoustic guitars in the world. Martin's designs for the shape and construction of these instruments have influenced virtually every other manufacturer, and the flat-top guitar as we know it today is essentially the same as that established by Martin in the 1850s. At one time or another Martin guitars have driven the sound of every kind of popular music, from country to pop, from bluegrass to rock'n'roll, and with the current resurgence of acoustic music, Martin's premier guitars are once more finding a new generation of enthusiastic musicians.
Martin is the oldest and most respected name among American instrument makers – not just guitar makers but makers of all instruments. In the guitar world, Martin had been established for over 50 years when Orville Gibson started carving the tops and backs of mandolins in the 1890s, over 100 years when Leo Fender started putting pickups on solid guitar bodies in the 1940s.
Martin carried on steadily as such important names as Washburn, Epiphone, Gretsch, National, Vega, Kay, and Harmony arose, flourished and perished.
