Hi. I changed the 52S entry to reflect current scholarship. We do have source documrntation and will ad it soon.76.105.199.24 (talk)


Hi I am a new editor as of December 2013 and am a student of the Sigma by Martin guitar line. I have been studying Sigma for a number of years and gathering documentation such as articles, Martin memo's, price lists, confidential dealer's information, catalogs, ads, trade magazines and periodicals, etc. I have noticed a number of inconsistencies and errors pertaining to certain models such as the 1980 D-10 'Anniversary' model and the citations that accompany it such as a 'Guitar Player' magazine ad dated September 1980[1]. The information currently on this page states that there were only 100 D-10 guitar made and they were completely solid. The ad states that they were a limited edition (meaning only being produced for one year), had a solid top and 'matched' (adspeak for laminate) back and sides. the Wikipedia page is in error and I ask others in the community to please check the source I am providing and allow mw to make the edit.

Please do, but don't add the correction as a rebuttal, just replace the incorrect information. This article is far too large for an entry about a specific company's products as is. Thanks for digging up a better source than an internet forum post. 69.23.116.182 (talk) 08:40, 31 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. Will do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bluesman1216 (talkcontribs) 05:58, 2 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
