MGR/Ryan « Martin DX-1 »
Published on 02/11/04 at 15:00I was interested in a Guitar with a lot of bottem end but with balanced highs as well. By reccommendation I went to my local Martin dealer expecting to spend $ 1000.00+
to get what I was looking for. (especially Martin)....HOW WRONG! I played every Martin from the DM to JM to the D-35. Very much to my surprise, the DX-1 had more bottem end, a better balanced tone, longer sustain, a louder projection, and a better fret action feel. Try this.... Don't look at model numbers, price or the fancies at your martin dealer, just play the martin line. YOU WILL choose the DX-1 over the rest..PERIOD! The best part....$ 500.00 !!!

Honestly...........NONE!!
It's a Martin!!! Any questions?
Blind test this against the Martin line. Unless you just want to spend $ 2000.00 for fancy pearl inlays and decorations you can spend $ 500.00 for a better sound. After all, how many of us will ever get our picture taken, for the world to see, playing a guitar???
