I have no comment/opinion on that but I can tell you Martin didn't build a full size jumbo guitar with 17" lower bout until ..... 2009!

wondering if your guitar is set up properly -dreads are not that bad on the body
when their properly set up. in fact i tend to like bigger guitars when their set up properly -i have my aches and pains as well -but the biggest suffering comes from hard to play instruments.

Well done, Shekie!
I find the slope shoulder, short scale of the 45 more comfortable than the square shoulder dreads. And they have the proper thump.

I've had my Djr for over a year and two flying trips. I love the thing. Right now it's my only guitar at the upstate house and I'm fine with that. To me, it feels like an 00 Martin that sits a little higher on my leg. Give me this exact guitar in gloss, 24.9 or 24.75 scale. Price it at $1100 so Maury and others can sell it between $650 and $700 and I'll be the first to order! |

I remember it this way also. My Yamaha f335 actually measured larger than my MartinX dread but it was more comfortable to play. Anyone else notice this?
