The guitar that I can call the roots of my life


Hello everyone! How are you all doing? We've been having rather dull autumn weather lately, haven't we?
Following on from our previous Angels Blog post , THE GALLERY by CHALIE VICE is featuring MARTIN, a brand with a long history that is irresistible to guitar enthusiasts, from Wednesday, October 4th to Tuesday, October 31st.

Since its founding in 1833, Martin has produced over 2 million guitars in 2017 years and continues to influence many music lovers. To commemorate this milestone, one of the 50 limited-edition models produced worldwide is being luxuriously exhibited at THE GALLERY by CHALIE VICE.


D-200 DELUXE ¥18,360,000

Please come and see Martin guitars in person; they have reached the realm of art. You're sure to be left in awe of the exquisite craftsmanship and the sheer beauty of the guitars themselves.

And for our very own Charlie, the Martin is a one-of-a-kind guitar filled with countless memories. As he felt he couldn't fully convey its charm, we'd like to share a new letter we received from CHALIE VICE.

Hey everyone! How are you all doing? I heard from the Angels that it's been quite chilly in Japan.
Everyone, please take good care of yourselves!

This might seem sudden, but what are some of your most cherished mementos?
It's the kind of item that, just by holding it in your hands, brings back memories of that moment.
I have several items that hold sentimental value for me, but among them, my Martin guitar is especially special.


My father loved music very much. He played the guitar and piano; music was an integral part of his life.
I could always hear the beautiful sound of Martin's piano coming from my father's study.
For my father, the guitar might have been just a luxury item.

Given my father's influence, it was only natural that the first guitar I ever owned was a Martin.

For me, Martin guitars bring back memories of my father and are like my roots, reminding me once again how wonderful music is.

I think some of my friends, when they encounter Martin, are reminded of the roots of their own lives.

Martin continues to shine brightly, never going out of style, no matter how many eras pass.
I would love for you to experience Martin's world and brilliance at my gallery and office.
And let's pick up our Martins and talk once again about the joy of living with music.
