Hi guys. I'm looking into purchasing a Martin Acoustic guitar as I just got a nice bonus at work. I was looking at a 1973 D-28 that's in mint condition and was seriously thinking about buying it (around $1600). I was wondering though if it's worth buying a guitar that is that old for that price or buying a brand new Martin in that same price range? I tried out the Martin DCPA4 Acoustic-Electric this weekend and absolutely loved that as well ($1449). I guess part of it is preference but I feel like a 1973 guitar in mint condition is also an investment of sorts. Additionally, are there are models with a similar look to the OMJM in the $1500-$2000 price range? What are your thoughts? I'm new to all this but am looking to buy a nice guitar after a good first year at work. Any thoughts would be awesome!
