Sound Pure's Take
Dana sure knows how to voice a guitar! This reminds me of some of the older Martins I've played, same big sound, a very responsive top, and just the right amount of overtone content without sounding too modern.
This one is sure to impress anyone with a predilection for these big bodied cannons!
From Bourgeois Guitars
Our most popular model, the square shoulder pre-War style Dreadnought delivers ample power to cut through any performance situation. Featuring Dana's unique, single-scalloped X brace system, our Dreadnought has become a bluegrass classic, offering a blend of balance and clarity absolutely required for flatpicking, highly desirable for most other styles of playing, but rarely found in a contemporary dreadnought.
