MARTIN | ACOUSTIC: ROAD SERIES | The Road Series feature Martin's most affordable all-wood guitars. Guitars feature solid spruce tops, three-ply laminated mahogany or rosewood back and sides, and are available in a variety of configurations. The DM was the first Road Series guitar to debut in 1996 and several other models were introduced during the late 1990s and early 2000s. By the mid-2000s, Martin had thinned out their entry-level guitars and merged the diminishing 1 Series with the Road Series. Since these two series were so similar, they discontinued the entire 1 Series by 2006. | DM | - dreadnought style, solid spruce top, laminated back and sides, bold herringbone rosette, black boltaron binding, select hardwood neck with Mortise/Tenon neck joint, 14/20-fret East Indian rosewood fingerboard with Style 28 dot inlays, East Indian rosewood headstock overlay with raised gold foil logo, three-per-side chrome tuners with small buttons, East Indian rosewood bridge, tortoiseshell pickguard, available in Natural Satin finish, 25.4 in. scale, mfg. 1996-present. |
