Sigma guitars WERE made by Martin some time ago, now operated by a German company called 'AMI Musical Instruments GmbH', Martin sold Sigma in 2007. Were made in Japan until 1983, now made in China. Good guitars if you ask me. I just purchased a Martin OMCPA4, but I plan to buy a Sigma Jumbo (copy of the J200...)
@d35s26 жыл бұрын
no, they are not and never have been. Sigma was started by CF Martin in 1970 but first built in Japan and later Korea, Taiwan etc... Then they were no sold for a number of years and only a few years ago, AMI in Municg, Germany bought the name and the rights to sell it from Martin except for the USA I think. They are now being built in China and they are great guitars. We have 4 Martin's and 5 Sigma's at home to play for the family. Just ordered one of these DR28MLE with a solid Adirondack top and solid back and sides of real Madagascar Rosewood, something the Martin HD28 does not have... so, hard to compare the two guitars as they are completely different!

Excellent playing. It showcases just how different the tone is. The Sigma is missing the mojo. Perhaps most notable on the open chords, but really I hear it throughout. However, even a mediocre guitar won't hold back great palling from shining through and you sir can do more with that Sigma than I'll ever be able to with my Martin. However my playing could use all the help it can get and the Martin does help.

Although the sigma sound good on it's own, to my ears is not even in the same ballpark compared to the Martin. That is a bummer, because the Martins are so expensive. If the sigma would have that same magic , I would buy one in an instant, because I don't really care what is on the headstock.

Scusami se chiedo a te ma siete pochi ad essere degli esperti nel settore e siccome credo che forse avrete avuto tra i vostri prodotti in vendita anche la Sigma SDR-28 MLE che era una produzione limitata e credo dedicata a tommy emanuel volevo sapere se veniva fornita con custodia rigida o morbida...(!!) Io ricordo che fosse con custodia rigida e addirittura su reverb mi sembra la vendessero usata con custodia originale rigida. Perchè faccio questa domanda? Credo di averne trovata una ma siccome oggi come oggi vatti a fidare ...e siccome non è in italia volevo sapere se proporla nuova e con custodia morbida potesse essere attendibile visto che parliamo di una chitarra che viene proposta apiù di 1000euro!!!

SI SENTE CHE LA mARTIN è LEGGERMENTE SUPERIORE E CREDO CHE MOLTI CHE HANNO COMMENTATO SE NE SIANO ACCORTI DEI BASSI PIù presenti e di un volume leggermente più alto. Detto questo però ci sarebbe da valutare se entrambe le chitarre avessero le stesse corde e se hanno gli stessi anni...!!! Non credo che la Sigma sia più vecchia della Martin e questo di sicuro la penalizza perchè i legni più invecchiano e più il suono migliora se negli anni lo strumento matura e risuona !!! Quindi è facile che non sia stato un confronto proprio alla pari magari se dopo un po' di anni si rifacesse lo stesso confronto con corde uguali e con uno strumento che comunque è stato suonato e ha avuto la possibilità di far vibrare il suo legno e di farlo asciugare e invecchiare allora si che adesso potremmo valutarne l'effettivo valore. Adesso dopo sei sette anni sarebbe bello riproporre il video con le stesse due chitarre come un film di Rocki e Rocki 2 :) !! ;)
