Purchased about a year ago from Sweetwater. It's been my couch strummer, but unfortunately not used as much as I'd hoped. Sounds great. Like a Martin J-45.

The Martin DSS-17 is a slope shoulder dreadnought that is incredibly comfortable to play and produces a beautifully pure tone from its solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides. This is a classic tonewood pairing known for rich, varied tone across the ranges. The DSS-17 also features spruce scalloped X-bracing for incredible tonal support and durability. In addition, a select hardwood neck with rosewood fingerboard offers wonderful response, playability, and feel.

The DSS-17 Whiskey Sunset Dreadnought slope-shoulder model boasts a rich, warm sunburst finish that will delight any player with its aesthetic beauty. It is skillfully crafted from a solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides with antique white binding. It features a modified low oval neck with a high-performance taper for added comfort and includes a rosewood fingerboard and bridge, scalloped bracing, and an old-style script logo on the headstock. The DSS-17 Whiskey Sunset produces beautiful, dynamic tones that will please the most discerning musician.
