    I felt a little guilty about spending so much money on this...but then I played it. If you play ukulele and love it--this is for you. Would highly recommend this for experienced players.

    The available date keeps changing... What is the current projected actual available date to receive this (I ordered it in early December). I contacted Martin... but they were disturbingly coy, which I am very unsatisfied with. They suggested that you would know???

    With regard to the Martin 1T IZ... is it available with a pickup? Is that a special order, and what would be the pricing? Would that effect the return policy? Thanks for your help. Gerry
