Just to put a bit more information forward regarding the Sigma DM 4 model I'd flagged up a couple of months ago ...
The guitar had originally been purchased by the seller as a brand new instrument in 1983, from a shop in Liverpool.
The DM 4 model is based on the Martin D 18.
It was made in Korea for C.F. Martin & Co. - this is branded into an NFL football shape on the internal back bracing along with its serial number and model number.
There is no paper label inside the body.
The 'propeller' inlay at the 12th fret position is alternatively referred to as 'cats eyes' - we'd wondered whether this inlay design was significant to date of manufacture or materials of construction?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Please could you advise on the following.
I have seen a number of Sigma SDR-28H guitars with ebony bridges and rosewood fretboards. Normally the same wood is used.
Was there a reason for this choice.

I have a sigma dm2 serial "sk 230114" made in Korea. Headstock says sigma guitars est 1970. Paper label with pink rectangle. Adjustable truss rod at headstock and fixed bridge. I've read somewhere that this is possibly early 1970s. Any info would be appreciated.
