Bought my nephew a 1960 Martin for his 12th birthday, it had just left the shop of a famous luthier for a tune up, I had the chance to play it for a few weeks before it was gifted...it was like driving a Ferrari :)
It was right up the road so I had to at least go play it. My 1987 J40 M sounded better IMO, but the Clapton model hadn't been played at all (the guy said the 30 minutes I spent on it was the most that it had been played) so it still has some seasoning to do.

Just looked at a beautiful 1995 000-42EC Sunburst (only 28 made) recently but it was way over priced for my budget...
