Martin D1 Acoustic Guitar (with Case) Reviews
8 out of 10
"A quality workhorse guitar. One that sounds good for the money and you're not afraid to play and have some fun with."
Feature:
No frills, but none needed.
Quality:
Seven years, still going strong. I have other, more expensive Martins (D-35, OM-42) and of course they have more extras and better sound and tone, but you cannot beat this for the price. Go the extra couple of hundred rather then pay 3-4 hundred for a guitar that will sound cheap and dissapoint you. You will want to play this one.
Value:
Can't find anything that compares at the price.
Desirability:
No sex appeal here. Just an outstanding everyday, leave it out to play whenever the mood strikes, get a ding and scratch, sit on the couch, have a beer, walk around the house driving the dog nuts type of guitar.
Sound:
Great sound for a guitar, never mind the low price. Records very well. After seven years of playing, is producing a very nice mellow sound.
Support:
Martins support is A-1. I had a question on a Sigma (bottom of the Martin line, no big bucks here) and they responded quickly with the information I asked plus more.
Overall:
Satisfied:lifelong. Don't plan on replacing it. If lost, yes, I would replace it. Wish I knew how good it was before I bought it. I would have bought it sooner.

"I love D-1"
Feature:
The 'lack' of the fancy stuff doesn't bother me. However, compared to the Taylor 200 series, which has ebony fingerboard and saddle and is in the same class as the D-1, the D-1 falls short.
Quality:
I haven't had any problems with ANYTHING. The tuners work well. The saddle is stable. The guitar stays in tune well. I can't complain.
Value:
The Taylor 200 series may give this D-1 the run for the money.
Sound:
The sound is really good, balanced with decent bass response. Obviously doesn't compare to the more expensive Martins/Taylors. But, it did well compared to a $2000 Gibson!
Support:
I didn't have issues to deal with their support team.
Overall:
I'm very happy with the purchase, the sound, the playability and the hardware. I just wish I would have tried the Taylor 200 series in the similar price range.
