Sounds As Smooth As The Name! Martin DSS Whiskey Sunset - The Denver Folklore Center
The Martin DSS Whiskey Sunset is essentially, Martin's impression of a pre WWII J-45. This comes not as a bad thing, but as an asset to this incredible guitar, with its dry-as-white-wine sound, its vintage vibes, and modern playability all combined into one perfect "who needs a J-45" guitar, (but don't tell Gibson we said that!)

    Own 4 Martins now have had others. But as a kid I was lucky enough to buy (and kept) since 1971 a J50. It will go to a nephew one day. Crisp clean sound of the Gibson. But today my fav. is a OMC16e Ovangkol.

    Great playing. Certainly looking at getting one. Maybe a touch nervous about them being made partially in China, but Eastman is great. How would you say the tone compare to the all American built ones? I haven't found a straight up comparison when it comes to the tone. They look the part, do they sound the part. That might make the price better or even a steal.
