Description

Sigma are now firmly established in the guitar world, with a reputation for producing high-quality (and beautiful) instruments at a fraction of the cost of some of their competitors!  The DM-SG is no exception to this, delivering alluring vintage aesthetics and incredible playability without the associated price tag. 

Construction

Mahogany is used for the back and sides; mahogany is known for being lightweight, resonant and having a pretty grain pattern, making it an excellent wood for acoustic building. On top, you've got solid sitka spruce, a wood that frequently features on guitars that cost significantly more than this one! 

The dreadnought shape ensures plenty of weighty projection, with a warm low-end response. The curves have been carefully calculated with reference to the dreadnought acoustics of old; this means an ergonomic playing experience without sacrificing tone. Combine this with the lightweight mahogany neck and the unusual micarta fingerboard, and you've got a beautifully organic cocktail of resonant tones at your disposal! 

Hardware & Electronics

One of the key features of this guitar is the Fishman Sonitone preamp. Fishman are known for their expertise in the acoustic field, making pickups and preamps that produce incredibly convincing sounds. 

The Sonitone embodies this, with simple tone and volume controls built-in for tonal tweaking. A rosewood bridge, flower art scratchplate, heritage cherry sunburst finish and chrome tuners complete the picture; a working instrument that also happens to look pretty darn beautiful!

Acoustic Guitars

Acoustic guitars produce their sound naturally through the vibration of the strings and body, offering a direct and expressive playing experience. They come in a wide range of styles, including steel string and classical designs, each with its own feel and tonal character. Body shape, wood choice, and construction all influence warmth, projection, and balance, making acoustics suitable for everything from gentle fingerstyle to confident strumming. Whether used for songwriting, practice, or performance, acoustic guitars provide a simple, honest connection between the player and the music.

Electro-Acoustic Guitars

Electro-acoustic guitars combine the natural sound and feel of an acoustic guitar with built-in electronics for amplification. Fitted with pickups and preamp controls, they allow you to plug directly into an amp, PA system, or recording setup while retaining an acoustic character. They’re ideal for live performance, rehearsal, and home recording, offering volume control and tonal adjustment without relying solely on microphones. Electro-acoustic guitars suit players who want the warmth and responsiveness of an acoustic instrument with the flexibility to play amplified when needed.

SG

The Gibson SG (Solid Guitar) is a rock icon with attitude. Introduced in the early 1960s, it took the Les Paul’s power and gave it a sharper, lighter, double-cut design for faster access to higher frets. Its twin humbuckers deliver raw, biting tone and endless sustain — perfect for everything from blues to heavy rock. Played by legends like Angus Young and Tony Iommi, the SG proves that simplicity, style, and sheer power never go out of fashion.
