UTILIZATION

The handle is quite enjoyable but there are better. The strings are fitted as original Martin pulling through. This is perfect for the sound but a lower firing facilitate jouabilit.
There's no cutaway but Access in acute is that simple.

SOUNDS

I have a good fifteen assay acoustic guitars and electro-acoustic. I have not the sound of the Cort AIM, too mtallique. I tried the Art and Lutherie not bad but not perfect, a massive sound taglewood (pica / mahogany) 300 not bad at all and that a Washburn 200 dfendait well. I also tried a Takamine acoustic under 600 but frankly over the DKX2 none boxed in the same CATEGORY. I am against the snobbery in the choice of instuments and I possde of instuments (batteries) excellent quality that taient far from being the most expensive. DCID J'tais So really let their chance to around 300 instruments. But frankly, when Martin tries this, you can not buy another. The sound is warm, equilibrated with a precision no relation to what I have heard elsewhere. It didn 't not the choice.
Touefois, the sound is mostly extraorindiare jou finger. With mdiator it frieze rather quickly.

OVERALL OPINION

I just bought it and the sound is really incredible. The price is quite lev (600) and is not twice as good as some guitars half Chres but it all a step up and once got hard to give up. We pay the brand but probably worth the. It is true that some propose for the price of massive wood guitars can be noble, but facing the audio test, the choice is clear itself.
