I fully intend on getting a Martin box made soon. But i do feel the same. I respect all the builders. Martin happens to be closer to my house so I went there first. And I was blown away with how respectful and helpful they were. Especially with my left handed issue I was curious about. I'm gonna play the box I got for awhile. Then I'll go after a Martin. As my needs and wants develop. I know when I started guitar, my needs and wants quickly developed. Now my guitars are a certain way. I'm guessing box will end up the same way.
