Hi all!

It's nice to get some information on the old Sigmas. I own a Sigma model DR-7S,... with serial nummer 23214. She's been with me through many of the midnight bonfires and those quiet evenings (21 years). I've written a few songs on it and like an old wine she gets better with age. My best song (in my estimation) is a classical piece written in Em in which my lovely wife walked down the isle to.

I was in a classic rock band in the late 90's in which I was the Drummer (my first love), but we would and still do, get together for the midnight bonfires. One of my guitar players loved the sound of my Sigma so much he went out and bought himself a Martin D-21. Although delighted with his investment he still admires my Sigma.

To all those that believe Sigma is a cheap rip off of the famed Martin; when you find a guitar that suits you, just play it and enjoy. Brandnames don't make music, people do.
