«  Excellent guitar »

Published on 08/16/10 at 07:55
Made in USA - between range at Martin Guitar, Dreadnought shape, fourteen non-cash boxes, bottom and fishplates mahogany table compress massive pica, key black Micarta (but what micarta ????)
So there is a good and a bad point: a handle chipboard year but a massive table, all VERY little as patent, which has an advantage and a default (see below). The guitar is dune absolute sobriety, the mcaniques is of great quality and all really inspires confidence.
Buying a box that is highly recommended.


USE

The handle is very pleasant to the touch, dune fluidity any evidence as quon not going to look any further than loctave. Lergonomie of the instrument is good, this is a dreadnoughts so the box is quite impressive but the game is the comfort. As said above, laccs to acute is not good, but it is not the purpose of this guitar. A Dtail that i particulirement apprci: the action of the strings is low enough originally a Factory.

SONORITS

So, sound, long ago say
It's a guitar in range, which is all the same 700, so it is reasonable to wait a certain quality. And the good news, Martin takes us out a little because certainly minimalist guitar and varnished provided without tui, but the savings are not ralises in sound, quite the contrary.
First agreement: ping, a slap! The game is just fabulous mdiator: every spring spectrum aptille harmonic everywhere, lquilibre between bass and treble mdiums is impeccable, and sounds Martin no doubt, it is far Takamine modern sonorits of 1000 (I do not criticize Takamine, it's just diffrent). At the risk of mattirer criticism: this is his big sisters Martin 1000, once again the savings are paid on the finishes and accessories.
As for the game to fingers, this is a rgal, quon play slap or quon touches the strings. You can really gauge his play, it sounds at all times!
Jadore really the sonority of the instrument, to me this is a skyscraper cowboy that he is difficult to default.


NOTICE GLOBAL

Jai possd an Art and Lutherie Cedar, an Art and Lutherie Ami and Cort electro, I wanted to go to the Superior notch and pay me a real nice acoustics. This Martin is perfect, it's a real pleasure to play with every time. It is very little varnished, which alinconvnient DTRE VERY weak, do lintrt to pay good tui. But the advantage, this is the table will evolve faster and the sound should only samliorer still time. Store she was laying dune ct Martin DXK2 (http://www.mguitar.com/guitars/choosing/guitars.php?p=z&g=h&m=DXK2AE) that costs 669. See nothing, even if the wood utiliss are not the same. The DX1 is much better, and qualitprix report is terrible!

Most of Martin DX1AE:
-The Look simple but raffinbr /> -The playing comfort
-The Sound !!!!
-The Report quality price

The Martin of DX1AE:
-The Fragilitbr /> -No dtui provided

Conclusion: Excellent guitar nhsitez not! You will become addicted.
Overall: 17/20
