The 'value' end of a well-known make. The DM1 can still be bought new for ca US$250, so this should give you an idea on the value of yours, depending on its condition. Hope this helps.

Another way of getting a 'street' price is to go to eBay, search "Sigma DM1" and click on the "completed listings" button. Hopefully, this will tell you what they have sold for recently.

Mine is a model that was made in Korea and then i believe finished in the US. Not sure though. I sent an email to Martin Guitars so we will see if they even respond. Thanks again.

It's a pawnshop, so the selling price may be low. Most people would prefer to bid from a complete stranger than a pawnshop (a stranger may be dodgy, but a pawnshop...)
