Following in the footsteps of the Sigma TM-12, the TM-15 sports a design and look similar to the Little Martin series. If you are looking for something warmer and earthier compared to the TM-12 then this guitar is your best bet. A solid mahogany top gives this guitar an authentic, classy look and it would not look out of place by the campfire under a starlit sky!
The Indian rosewood fingerboard and bone nut and saddle shows that the TM-15 may not have the high price of a Martin but it certainly has the love and care!
In the late 1960s the situation for US guitar manufacturers became difficult: guitars that were made in Japan, looking very similar to US guitars, were flooding the market but at a much lower price. These guitars increasingly endangered the US manufacturers dominance on the market, and a few American companies reacted to that development in an appropriate manner: They did not take any legal steps but instead launched a counter offensive. That’s when “Sigma Guitars” was born. In 1970 “SIGMA”, the brandname for acoustic guitars, was launched.
Now a new line of Sigma branded guitars are on the market through AMI Musical Instruments GmbH in Germany.
As a distributor of fine acoustic and classical guitars for over 25 years, it is a great honour that we were able to obtain for some parts of the world the rights of the time-honoured name “Sigma Guitars Est. 1970” as well as the distinct Sigma logo.
Our business partner and guitar manufacturer is one of the most respected makers who has been building outstanding quality guitars for over 20 years.
Sigma Guitars have an excellent, yes even legendary reputation. With outstanding quality both in construction and sound, it is striking but not surprising that there are hardly any second-hand Sigma guitars up for sale. Most owners still swear by their instruments and would never part with them.
