Solid Adirondack Spruce • Solid Mahogany • K&K Pure Mini Pickup • Road Runner ABS Hard Case
A hard-to-find 2021 Sigma SDJM-18S slope-shoulder slotted-head dreadnought, inspired by the legendary Gibson J-45 and Martin's slotted-head D-18 designs. See comparison with J45 last photos.
This premium Sigma offers exceptional craftsmanship, outstanding tone, and professional upgrades at a fraction of the cost of comparable American-made instruments.
Designed by Sigma Guitars Germany (AMI Musical Instruments GmbH) under the direction of master luthier Günther Lutz, this model represents the modern revival of the Sigma brand. Since acquiring the Sigma trademark (outside the U.S. and Japan), AMI has focused on building high-quality, all-solid wood instruments that combine traditional designs with modern manufacturing and excellent value.
The SDJM-18S features premium tonewoods, including a Solid AA Adirondack Spruce top paired with Solid African Mahogany back and sides, producing exceptional volume, clarity, and dynamic response that will continue to improve with age.
Professionally upgraded with a K&K Pure Mini passive pickup, this guitar delivers a warm, natural amplified sound without compromising its outstanding acoustic tone. Also included is a Road Runner ABS molded hard case, making this an excellent package for performers, collectors, and traveling musicians.
