In the early part of the twentieth century, the history of the modern guitar

began. Martin's early Standard Series Dreadnoughts set into motion the guitar's

prominent role in modern music and set the standard for tone quality in acoustic

guitars. Martin's Standard Series models became known for resonant warm

tones, quality craftsmanship and tasteful styling. For those reasons Martin

guitars became an important part of the music written and performed by the

famous musicians and singing stars of the '20s and '30s.
Standard Series guitars are owned and played by many of today's country and

rock stars for the same reasons that many of music's early stars played Martin

guitars. The sound quality and craftsmanship of today's Standard Series models

continue to live up to the reputation established by their forerunners that began

the Golden Age of the guitar.
