Years ago Harold toured Ovation Guitar with a Navy buddy. Still fascinated with processes and how things are made, Harold was pleased to learn that Martin Guitar Factory in Nazareth, PA, offered tours. So one rainy afternoon, we headed there with Glen and Tanna.
Making guitars is quite the process. It takes months to make a guitar with lots of drying times involved between glues and varnishes at the various stages. Martin makes approximately 140,000 guitars per year and employs several hundred people. Employees rotate among several jobs within their department, and generally stick with the two or three stations at which they excel.
