A new interview turned up on mazdigital.com concerning Mark's association with Martin guitars. Martin Guitars It was kind of interesting, and Mark certainly has some history with them! |

it doesn't show the interview for me, only a cover which does not provide any option? I should check it in an alternative path i suppose... |

Hi, Stanko. After you get the first page up, about midway down on the right hand side is an arrow. Click on that and it will advance you to the next two pages which have the rest of the article. You can navigate through the magazine both back and forth through the whole thing that way. Good luck! I think the other articles are also guitar based. |

Thanks Linda, another good interview. I love the look of Martin guitars, I have never had the pleasure to play one though, but I can imagine they are great as they have been around so long. |

My brother had one before he died. He bequeathed it to a friend that shared his joy in bluegrass music. It had very beautiful tone. He had someone offer a real deal to him, and although it was a bit of a pinch, financially, he jumped at it. I know he never dreamed he would one day own one of his own. |

Thank you for the article Linda, i finally get to read through. "The best of the old with the best of the new" is definitely where Mark is the master at! As you might already noticed, I never played quitar but I certainly can listen to it! I'm so happy your brother got one! Who cares the costs, harps worth more than any fortune and fame! |
