| 1983 Morris W-100 Martin D41/45 Acoustic Guitar Clone w/Hardshell Case $880.00 |
I have never seen an acoustic guitar with woods this shockingly beautiful. The grain is just breathtaking, and all of the
woods are solid woods, some of which are flamed completely through (look inside the sound hole). Morris built a lot of
Martin replicas in their heyday from the 1970s through the 1980s, and I've had quite a few of them. In fact, it's probably
the most prized model (W-100) I own; I've never had a higher-end W. The woods that were available then are not
readily available now, and I am sure that any instrument built like this now using this type of rare wood would be priced
around $4,000. In fact, Morris, Headway and K. Yairi still make amazing Martin clones in small quantities, and the prices
of instruments that are made like this one are priced close to $4,000 USD. Stop by and check out TC Gakki's in Tokyo
and see for yourself. I already have a Morris TF-815 for my personal collection, that's similar, so I can't keep this one.
