Thread Name: Sigma Guitars
Subject: RE: sigma guitars
Hi Everyone,
I just purchased a Sigma guitar - Model Number s2000 (original warantee paper states this model, but "2000" is stamped on the inside) next to the serial No which is 1390581. The guitar is stamped with "sigma guitars made in Japan for Martin Co", but the headstock does not have either of the sigma 'logos' described above, it has a pearl design very similar to the one I have seen on a "Collings D42", it also has pearl markings on the neck, around its body, and around the sound hole (not sure if that is the proper term). At first I though it was an Anniversary Sigma made by Martin but the models don't seem to match up (model s2000 VS 10?). Maybe I have a different model than I think?

The dealer said he talked to a Martin Rep and they have no records of Sigma ever making this model - its beleived it was made in the late 70's or very early 80's.

Anyone ever hear of this model? Or have any information? I also have pics I would be willing to send out if someone wants to see them.

It sounds great that is why I bought it!

Thanks in advance for any help.

Pierre
