Description
Introduced in the 1990s as a precursor to the Road Series, the DM pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with laminated mahogany back & sides, delivering the warm, woody dreadnought tone Martins are known for-without frills or a hefty price. The 25.4" scale and Modified Low Oval neck give it familiar Martin playability, while a passive undersaddle pickup provides straightforward stage capability.
