Here is an awesome comparison of the Sable with what looks like a Martin OM-28

Cool video. Played with fingers the Martin sounds slightly louder to me and has more midrange. That is a bit surprising to me coming from a rosewood guitar (a bump in mid range) but we are talking about totally different build materials.

Strummed the Sable really seems to light up more and kind of leaves the Martin in the dust in my opinion. Tonally both are gorgeous, one will need a neck reset someday.

By golly, by gum! ...

The Sable sounds like wood and the Martin sounds like CF!!!

Who knew?

By the way, what is "djent" ? That sounded absolutely awful and I would guess there is a real talent for taking a fine guitar such as either the McPherson or Martin and making it sound like crap. The video was doing fine until the end part.

That is just a modern "get off my lawn" song.
