SIGMA M4 - mandolin - MIJ

In 1970, guitar maker Martin created a line of inexpensive guitars made in part from laminated wood, instead of the solid wood used in their main line.

Sigma was made in Japan from 1970 - 83. Later the instruments was produced in Korea. SIGMA - The name may have originated by turning the Greek letter Sigma (Σ) on its side.
