A local guy who fixes guitars was looking for a little project to flip and offered $125. I dropped the price to $200 and got an offer. But, Craigslist can be fickle and I wasn't getting any interest at all. I've seen these listed on eBay for a lot more, but they tend to sell for anywhere from $225 to $400. I guess that tends to scare people away and no one was biting on my original asking price of a very reasonable $235. I made sure everything else was looking good.all polished and clean, and I listed it on Craigslist with a description of what nice condition the guitar was in, but it needed a set-up and a little tweaking due to the fret buzz. I've heard horror stories about snapped truss rods and popped necks and it makes me nervous. I don't know about you, but I am just always hesitant to break out the allen wrench and start cranking on the truss rod. I put a set of brand new Martin SP Bronze medium strings on it, and.hmmmm. I got home and got the swap meet layer of funk off of it easily.just a little dust and the smell of breakfast burritos. Didn't look warped or anything so I took a chance. It had some old loose strings on it, so I couldn't get a good read on the neck. I found this one at the Oceanside CA Swap Meet and picked it up for a mere $75.

Those guys at Martin know how to spec out a guitar.
This guitar was really nice sounding and had a very clear, rich tone for a guitar in this price range. So, you have to look at the guitar.get a close look right on the edge of the soundhole. I've even heard that, on some of the '70s Yamaha FG models, they would make some solid and some laminate. So take a good close look if you have one and decide for yourself.
I've owned quite a few nicely made Asian factory Yamahas and Brunos and others that have been pretty tricky to figure out. It's a nice standard dreadnought guitar with a solid top. The DR1ST was modeled after the Martin D-16 from what I could find.
