C. F. Martin & Co., Inc. 510 Sycamore Street, Nazareth, PA 18064

"Oh my goodness! Musicians and music lovers alike will enjoy this tour. It was informative and walking through the factory to see how intricate each step in the guitar making process is was truly amazing. The $5 ticket is a fabulous price and the attached museum is interactive and filled with guitar memorabilia. Don't forget to pop into the Picking Parlor to play some of the Martin's guitars!"

"Incredibly well done and detailed tour of the legendary guitar maker, a must-see if you are visiting the area and my third time there. The $5 ticket proceeds go to their Foundation and I'd a true bargain. Don't miss the museum and if you are a guitar lover drop into the acoustic room where you can try guitars not everyone can afford. Special thanks to Tyler for being our efficient tour guide."

"A very informative tour on the history of C.F. Martin and the process of crafting their guitars. Plus a small but lovely museum with some very famous instruments on display. Highly recommend and easy to knock out your visit in about one hour."

"A long-cherished guitar pilgrimage and rite of passage! It was a privilege visiting the headquarters of C. F. Martin and Co., the manufacturers of Martin Guitars, located in the sleepy little town of Nazareth, PA. The hour-long factory tour was superb, with our guide Tyler taking us through the entire production process for these exquisitely crafted acoustic guitars, the staple choice for many of our musical heroes the world over. Other highlights were being able to visit the Martin Guitar Museum and the Martin Guitar 1833 Store. I have no words to praise the people and employees there, some of the nicest and kindest people I have ever met! The highlight of the tour for me was going into the ‘picking parlor’ and being able to strum a couple of chords on a $3200 D-28 and also being able to try some other top of the line Martin guitars. A wonderful experience if there ever was one and highly recommended if you are ever in the greater Philadelphia area!"

"We walked in at 1050am and were able to join the first free tour at 11am. Our guide was friendly and the amount of stuff we got to see for free is impressive. Plus you get a keepsake at the end of the tour. The factory is noisy and has a variety of smells that may bother some due to glue and wood cutting but it is fascinating and well worth it in my opinion!"
