Martin's No Frills, No Compromise Dreadnought!
The DX1R, one of Martin's most affordable instruments, is a 14-fret dreadnought steeped in everything that has made Martin guitars so well respected among fans of acoustic guitars - superior craftsmanship and fine, natural tone.

The fretboard is of black micarta with side dots only, black micarta bridge, chrome enclosed gears, and the whole instrument features a satin finish.

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "The first time I played this guitar I was shocked. I couldn't believe that the tone I was hearing was coming from such an inexpensive guitar. Working here at Sweetwater allows me the opportunity to try out a lot of different guitars side by side. I have to be honest, this is one of the best playing and sounding guitars we carry. Priced under $500, this guitar is an incredible value and an excellent choice for any player."
Trent Thompson
