No idea what this is (where and when made).

Something else for the Japanese domestic market?

I'm not sure what is up with these?

They are putting torches on everything, even a D18 copy.

I have to wonder if these are made in China under license from Martin??

CF Martin logo tuners on this one and the one above it.

I have a rare Sigma LP model. It's a great guitar. I can't find any info about on the internet. I've been told that it's made by Tokai.

Sigma Guitars Guitar SDK-41 Massive Hawaii Koa Custom/Demonstration Instrument 4260685051308 | eBay

Seller's description:

Guitar teacher sells very rare Sigma guitar custom model SDK-41 made from solid Hawaiian KOA / Body attachment on the 14th Federation with very beautiful, elaborate abalone inlays / ( Photos similar to the one shown!!)

This guitar is an exhibitor guitar! But I can assure you that this guitar is in mint condition! (Exhibitor's piece/guitar was always kept in the case/gig bag!). This guitar only has minimal traces of play on the top and back (nothing remarkable!!) and no other defects. That's why I grant the normal 24-month guarantee! Really a "bargain" for this price!

Every longer guitar friend will be familiar with the Sigma brand (since 1970). It is all the more gratifying that - after a long break in production - this brand is being built again.

I can only tell you - from my vantage point - that I very rarely held such a well and precisely processed guitar in my hands. On top of that they sound amazing and the best part is of course the price!! Value for money really 1 A!

I believe this style paper label with the floral border and gold lettering for “CF Martin & Co” (see first picture) is from the period where Terada possibly built some Sigma guitars?

My belief is that Terada made these in the late 80s and early 90s, though that needs to be verified

Very well built.

This one is marked as a SIGMA S00045V. So SIGMA version of a Martin 000-45 with Jacaranda back & sides.

Is this your guitar?

 

[Sigmania]

No. This is a long thread documenting the variety of Sigmas. This one seems to be a newly made guitar, and I am wondering if it was made in China? Seller is stating the back & sides are solid koa, but I would wonder.
