«  Fantastic ... Martinesque »

Published on 11/30/12 at 10:51
Made in Japan.
A Lawsuit honoring the Martin D18.
Massive at all after 34 years (from 1976 to 1978 production) that the magnitude of the acoustic guitar is exceptional
Solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides
Mahogany neck has not moved after three decades

UTILIZATION

Dreadnought body, handle with profile V increases slightly towards the heel.
I especially love the patina.
The sound ... I just

SOUNDS

If it suits my style of music? Oh yes ... this is a little stereotypical (if any) of the acoustic guitar in my opinion.
The sound is very similar to a D18 of 1974 I had the opportunity to try at Lolo DOMONT.
The scale is impressive sound. It sounds much louder than my Hummingbird.
The only flaw that I found is a bit of a lack of bass. It is easily corrected in the balance ....

OVERALL OPINION

Long sought.
Found recently. It is mine and will remain so.
The HG series of the '70s HOHNER is absolutely fantastic and to discover urgently.
