NYT article on Martin's guitar factory tour

Some nice pictures from the Martin factory. Not a groundbreaking article but I was surprised they use a robotic arm for the first stage of polishing. A tour I'd love to do.

    I went on that tour last year. The robot polishers were awesome. I was mad keen to buy a Martin direct from the factory, but it really wasn’t worth buying from them sadly. Warranty, customs and CITES were the reasons why I didn’t (not sure if CITES would have been an issue tbh but Martin didn’t offer anything with regards to that. I wanted a 00-28). Wicked place though.
