    also musican inc. sell martins, but they have limited in shop stock but can order a specific model in for you in 2 days.

    it's where i bought mine, dealt with nigel - a sound bloke.

    I've never come across that in Music Maker's acoustic dept. Actually quite the opposite, the guy was trying to persuade me to play a few of them. I was just browsing and having a chat about a guitar he was playing.

    Usually you ask before trying out any of the instruments in there, they're more than happy to let you play them if you do that. Just don't start singing, I've seen people get an earful because they go in and think they can have a singalong with some friends. LOL :D

    I'm not gone on the place because the proaudio guys are almost always clueless bullsh*tters, but never had a problem like that. They even seemed more than happy to go dig out guitars from the back for me to play.

    i dont think they have taylor anymore cause when i got mine in musician the guy was telling me they lost the contract to sell them in dublin. go into musician if you rlooking for a taylor but stick to goodwins and perfect pitch for the martins cause musician only do the cheap mdf yokes
