I purchased a Martin DC-16RGTE Premium 6 string acoustic-electric
guitar in the spring of 2005.
A Martin guitar can be identified by its model
number. The D means it's a dreadnaught, or standard body size. The C
indicates that
it is a cutaway body style. The 16 is the ornamentation series, the R
represents the Rosewood back and sides, the GT tells
you that it has a gloss top and the E is because it has on-board electrics.
The top is solid sitka spruce with a gloss finish and
the back and sides are solid East Indian rosewood with a semi-gloss finish.
It has a gooseneck-mounted interior microphone, an under-saddle pickup and
on-board tuner in addition to the regular Prefix Blender features.
As
with all Martin guitars, the tone is superb, the action great and the guitar is
just plain fun to play. Everything you want to know about Martin
guitars can be found on their web site.
