On Wednesday, November 8th, at 7p, Dusty Strings will welcome chairman and CEO of the world-renowned C.F. Martin & Co, owners of the Martin Guitar Company. C.F. ‘Chris’ Martin IV is the sixth generation of the family running this extraordinary company and he will speak at Dusty Strings on the past, present and future of the guitar. He will be joined by Martin Artist Craig Thatcher, who will play some unique, custom instruments and talk about the new Aura VT Enhance Electronics being used by Martin.
This free presentation will include discussion about this family business, in existence for over 150 years, and how its refocusing on its primary strengths: creating steel-stringed acoustic guitars. Martin, however, is also politically active and the company supports key issues affecting the guitar industry, and environmental sustainability.
