I just got this email from James today and I`m sad that this beautiful guitar got out of my hands but I`m also happy that is owned now by someone who can appreciate instrument like this.Thanks for the pic James and I wish you a lots of fun with this instrument and enjoy your gig with Hank Thompson my friend.

Damir, Don't worry, I'm enjoying this Marlen BIG TIME!!! I have got more comments about this guitar(Like: What's an idiot like YOU doing with a steel like THAT!! ) No Really, I have to fan people away so I can put it away and go home after a gig, People just LOVE the beauty of this guitar. This guitar actually makes me "look" like I know what I'm doing!!!(until I actually start playing, oh course! I hold off on that part as long as I can. ) But Seriously, I'm having a BALL with this cool guitar, even though I am still doing "Newbie 101". Ricky D was right, this guitar really is easy to tune once you do it a couple times. I love both necks--I have worked on the E9th for 9 months now,(I had a Marlen S-10 before this D-10) and it is getting a little easier. I love the C6th neck, too, it's just as cool to me. I love the tone on the C6th tuning. I highly recommend the C6th Workshop by Jeff Newman---for someone who knows nothing about C6th. It's a real fast track.>>>>How do ya'll like my rack system?? It's for not sale. HA! >>>Jim C. I'll keep an eye out for your steel!! Trust me!!

Thanx Rick, Thanx for the compliment!! I just love this guitar. I'm waiting to get my second year under my belt, see where I'm at then for progress. I really feel the Marlen is a fine and unique guitar. To me , they are special. Just wish I started 30 years ago!!! Oh well, never to late!!
