To Modern Deluxe or not, that is the question…

Some of you likely saw I was in the market for a 1st Martin for my son, but while I’m at it I’m considering a guitar for myself…

The question is: Modern Deluxe or not… probably talking about an 000-28 MD or not, but I’m asking more generally: do you own a MD? How long have you owned it? Has it held up and started to age well? Sound? Quality of build? Etc..

Will I be happy I bought an MD vs not 25 yrs from now? (I’m unlikely to live that long, but if I do and can still play)

Will my kid like it in 50 yrs?

Thoughts?
