The Casio DG-20 was an "entirely new type of digital musical instrument which features the latest in state-of-the-art technology"

These were built with a basswood body

Martin's early dreadnoughts set into motion the guitar's prominent role in modern music and set the standard for tone quality in acoustic guitars

other than that it doesn't seem to have been played much over the years as it has very minimal fretwear and very few signs of cosmetic damage

Continually honing their craft
