Sigma DSME Dreadnought Shortscale 14-fret Acoustic Guitar
The Sigma DSME is a Short Scale, Dreadnought-bodied Electro-Acoustic guitar with a 23.5” scale length and 000 body depth. The DSME benefits from all of Sigma’s core features, coming with a solid Sitka Spruce top, dovetail neck join and bone nut and saddle. Furthermore, it has been fitted with Sigma’s Preamp and pickup, which includes a built-in tuner. The result is a real do-it-all guitar - small enough for cosy home playing, but easily gig-able thanks to the pickup system.
Full size guitars can be a little cumbersome, making them tricky to play when, for example, seated on a couch. They can also be a bit of a stretch for those with smaller hands. The Sigma DSME solves both problems in one stroke. Though it has a recognisable Dreadnought body shape with 14-fret neck to body join, this has been shrunk by a few inches in length. The body is also shallower than a full-size Dread’, coming in at about the depth of a 000-sized guitar. The result is a guitar which is familiar in sound and looks, but much more wieldy than its bigger brother. It is perfect for those who want a smaller guitar for home playing or for those with smaller hands. It’s also ideal for someone who just wants an easy-playing everyday guitar. The DSME’s everyday giggability is confirmed by the inclusion of a preamp and pickup system, which comes complete with a built-in tuner. This system really makes the player’s life so much simpler. Tuning couldn’t be easier - no more digging around for an external clip-on or plug-in tuner; simply switch it on and follow the prompts on the clear, built-in display. When it comes to playing live, all you need to do is plug in with a standard instrument cable and you’ll be ready to fill the biggest auditorium. An external battery compartment makes it very easy to swap in a new battery.
