Martin DX1 Acoustic Guitar (Dreadnaught)

This Martin guitar is GREEN. The neck is made of a composite material and the rosewood and spruce are products of sustainable harvesting. While that's all very nice for the do-gooder in me, what really counts is: How does it sound?

DX1R

I think you have a great sounding guitar! My DXM had a green tint to the blond top when I first got it many years ago, but it has faded away. The inside is still green and has a tone very similar to yours. Great picking friend.

I checked out your videos and you're right - it does. Really nice stuff. Thanks for stopping by. Wray.

I watched your video before I bought my DX-1. This was 6 months ago. I heard alot of other (much more expensive guitars) since and I am still absolutely thrilled about my guitar. The tone is so full and it is loud but loud in a beautiful sense.

I tried many strings such as DR, Martin SP, D'addario, Elixr PB nanoweb. I tried to not like the coated Elixir but I always returned to these. Even if I play alot, after a month and more they still sound awesome.

Would like your opinion on that...

[WrayLS]

My opinion is...I should try them too.

Is that a bit of floydish "is there anybody out there" at the end? :D

Sounds pretty darn good! I've got a 10 year old takamine. It sounds almost that good, imagine what that Martin will sound like in 10 years!!!

[DoorMat444]

It sounds great!

Hello friend,

Thanks for your comment.

I actually have the same guitar and it truly is the color green on the inside of the box.

As years have passed, the green color is fading or aging to a beautiful tan color.

I'm not meaning to argue with you.

@theodas i don't quite think he meant green as in the color of the guitar, i think he meant green, like environmentally friendly.

TO REALLY KNOW HOW THIS GUITAR SOUNDS, YOU HAVE TO HEAR IT IN PERSON. YOU WON'T BELIVE IT UNTIL YOU PICK JUST ONE STRING AND IT BLOWS YOUR FACE OFF!!!!!!!! LOUD AND DEEP AND FULL AND SUSTAINS FOR EVER! BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT!!!! Mark T. Owens.

you wrong in one thing its not based on the musicians preference , u always search for the sound and as much i heard acoustic guitars even they look the same or size every one gives u its own sound , maybe in your case the guitar you have is similar in sound comparing to the dx1r model , what is the model of  your fender guitar?
