In response to the rise of affordable, Japanese-made guitars in the late 1960s posing a threat to American manufacturers, the Sigma Guitars line was launched in 1970. Crafted by skilled artisans in efficient Japanese factories, these guitars underwent rigorous inspection in the US before reaching the market. The Sigma brand swiftly garnered acclaim for its superior construction quality and exceptional sound, cultivating a devoted following and collectors' interest, with second-hand models scarce due to owners' reluctance to part with them.
Enter the Sigma 15 Series, boasting a solid mahogany top, neck, back, and sides, making it a distinctive acoustic guitar model. Departing from the brightly-coloured, resonant tops of its predecessors, the all-mahogany construction harks back to the original alternative sought by those craving a unique aesthetic and sound profile. Now enhanced with a satin finish and adorned with a single ring rosette inlay, the 15 Series epitomises understated elegance.

The mahogany neck, featuring a low profile, offers comfortable playability, while the bone nut and saddle, along with Micarta fingerboard and bridge, ensure excellent tonal clarity and sustain.
