gd.marsh,
Finaly got around to taking the Martin plant tour. Very interesting. I was rather suprised with the amount of hand work that goes into making their guitars. Most of the cnc work is done for major bulk parts like the necks and wood prep work and that is were a lot of the cnc machines are used. One must pay for that tour , it's a different tour than the free one. Anybody is in the neighborhood of Nazareth, Pa. I would recommend the tour and and look at the museum.
