2001 Martin D-1 Dreadnought Guitar


Overview: These early D-1s with their lightish, "A-frame" modified x-bracing, sound big and round and make great D-18-a-likes for the fellow who wants a bit more low-end support for chord-thumping. They're not-frills but make great players when dialed-in, like this one is.


Repairs included: As I recall, this got a bridge reglue, level/dress of the frets, and setup work from both Jose and Jacobi. It's playing spot-on and ready to go.
