Description: Hello, eBay! For sale today is a Sigma DR-3. I'm not 100% certain on the vintage, since Sigmas are notoriously difficult to date, but I'm gonna guess it's from the mid 90s to the early 2000's. This would most likely make it either Korean or Indonesian in manufacture. It's a decent guitar, laminated back and sides with a rosewood veneer (the inside looks like mahogany to me), and a spruce top that also appears to be a laminate. Tone wise, it's bright, punchy, and loud, though isn't quite what I was after when I bought it on an impulse, so I will put it back out there in hopes of it finding someone who will like it more than I. It has the scratches and dings one would expect from a 20+ year old guitar, especially one that was probably a first or second instrument for a young player (it does have a vague aroma of incense, but that's better than nicotine). Tech specs as of the time of writing: Action at the 12th fret: 9/64" (3.5mm) on the bass side, 6/64" (2.5mm) on the treble, which is high-ish but quite playable still. There's plenty of height in the saddle if you want to bring it down and still maintain a good break angle. Neck relief: 0.008" (0.20mm) which is a pretty straight neck. The truss rod is maxed out though, so if you want to get it perfectly straight, some sorcery may be required. There is a bit of wear on the bridge pad, the ball end of the high 'e' was very "grabby" when I was putting on a new set of strings, and the 'd' was also not as prone to release as the others. And speaking of new strings, it has a fresh set of DR Sunbeam 12's on there, and the person I bought it from gave the frets a good polishing, polishing, polishing before it was shipped out to me. Includes a heavy duty gig bag, and will be packed securely. Ships only to the continental USA. Local pickup is also available, in Portland, Maine. Thanks for looking, and have an awesome day!
