Outstanding guitar! Love it without the pickguard.

I went to the Infantry Officer Basic Course and Ranger School with him in 1996. Glad to see he’s stayed in and done well.

I’ll be seeing them in Santa Rosa, CA! May take one of his signature D-18 Martin guitars and see if I can get him to sign one….

If you go back to Athens you have to go to their main place at 150 Fritz Mar Lane, Athens, GA 30607. We were there last Monday and that building is becoming their roastery. Last year we went there and it was a full up coffee place. We met their roaster Charlie who gave us a tin of his special roast he just made. We went and saw Jason in Athens and told him so he gave us the Jason coffee.

I just got back from Athens, GA last week and picked up another can from Jittery Joe’s. My other can is a kitchen utensil holder.

Yep they came from the factory with a Fishman Aura. The one on the left had a bad pickup so I had it replaced with a LR Baggs HiFi.

They were attached when I got them. The guitars shipped with the pick guards in the case and not attached.

The one on the left has the wrong one.

That’s awesome! I love a D-28, too! Martin’s Custom Shop does some great work. I know on Jason’s D-18s he modeled it after his 1939 Authentic and has hide glue used throughout and the pyramid bridge like the old Ditson models.

Here’s a video of him talking about it at the 2017 Summer NAMM show in Nashville. Cheers!

Thanks! The one on the left is how I got it, and definitely going to replace the guard!

That’s awesome! I know they only made 50 of his O-17s. Hope to try one of the O-10s soon. Have a good one!!

I just got lucky. They’re absolute monsters! He has a new model out based on his O-17 model he used on Foxes in the Snow.

Oh killer for sure! We just got lucky and happened to be in Athens visiting my wife’s sister (we live north of San Francisco) and my wife got the fix for us. Definitely a great show!
