To check out the features on other sites. 1st prize in all solid Martin (handle included) with woods (mahogany, ebony if I'm not mistaken), why I bought it.
She is super nice, with the table and the rest gloss matt waou ....

UTILIZATION

I'll start with the handle: it is simple, I take no pleasure to play another round sound, that goes for all the noise I tried .... It is just wonderful, just happiness. Congratulations Martin.
In terms of ergonomics, access to acute ECT is bein a classic dreadnought so I will not dwell on it too.
The lack of cutaway nothing embarrassing on the contrary, the guitar loses sound and largely with power and access to acute is any possible way solo to the end. Is Clapton has a cut on his Unplugged? Yet he "soloing" all over the neck.


SOUNDS

Take the guitar, do a G chord you do sound very good, close your eyes and listen to the notes all detached from one another, brightness, low power, sustain extraordinary ....... Waouuu again M'sieu Martin Bravo!
This guitar is not made to play by being afraid to wake mom and dad sleeping right next to it is made to play loud, very loud, do not be afraid to attack the strings hard, and C is simply amazing, I'm in love ...
It is sold with ropes MS medium is too hard for me, I tried to custom light but avoid an emergency, you can not play loud, the strings buzzed directly. SP with light, I find my account, the necessary brightness without being too metallic and very deep bass.

OVERALL OPINION

I looked for a guitar around 1000 € and without non-acoustic electric cutaway, in short, a no frills guitar that sounds and in all circumstances, but we must try! All that is Ibanez, Yamaha ect at this price point it's impossible not to have electro, shame ... I tried the 1st prize Martin (500-800 €) with cutaway and electro rang and it does not at all, I was very disappointed of the mark .. But that was before having tested the D series which is absolutely cracked me there! More hesitation to have!
All my friends who tried it loved me'll have to steal ... Also, my teacher told me they had professional friend, Martin instead of more expensive it is to say ...

In short, try it now!
