Martin Guitars D-13E-01 Ziricote

This is a wonderful instrument to be a "lower end" Martin, it sounds more expensive than it is. I didn't like the other ziricote model I had tried in the shop because the sound was too "dry", a bit like staccato to my ears if you see what I mean, so I made a bet that the boomy quality of a dreadnought would correct that, and I was right. I am sending this back exclusively because the size is not improving my back pain, but it breaks my heart. Very beautiful dark wood too. Only downside, it's heavier than other models, but that is relative. Still lighter than the X2E. Sounds amazing and "boomy", if you like that.
