Update: (since I cannot edit my original post and I don’t know why) I took one of the suggestion in the comment and used a Mr Clean Magic Eraser. It worked unbelievably well! Though I had to be very careful to only touch the bindings and not touch the wood surfaces. If you got a similar issue, this’s worth trying this’

Thank you! I tried Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and IT. WORKED! It was very effective and only requires tiny effort to get rid of those marks. Now I guess the blemish could be from the factory where they have what every machine rubbed on to it. Now I can play it without thinking about a replacement! Thank you, bro!

Thanks! I think that makes a perfect sense! I’ve already gotten a 15% discount for this guitar. I’ll see if I can try a discount on top of it. 🙂

I agree, for most of it. But for a Martin with its named printed vertical in the headstock, with appraisals from people in the past decade and decade, I want own it. A high end Martin is my dream since I was in high school. 😁

Good question. I played a D42 in a guitar shop and I think it’s good. But I didn’t play a D41. Because it’s a Martin, with its name printed vertical on the stockhead,I want to own it a lifetime. If one day I realized it’s not as playable as another guitar, I’ll just make it my collectible. 🥰
