• The D-1 Pro pushes boundaries with master-grade wood and innovative features like the oval side sound port, Tru-Reduction soundboard etching, Black Tusq nut and saddle, and a Low-G string for rich, deep tones.

The D-1 is the embodiment of simplicity and precision — designed for those who crave clarity, tone, and a flawless playing experience at every level. Wherever you are on your musical journey, the D-1 gives you the perfect instrument to express your sound.
