But you *are* planning to try before you consider buying, aren't you? Cos that's what you need to do.
And better? You'd have to AB. The nearest I've had to D1 was a Martin 000X1. Good but not great. Gave it away to young neighbour eventually.
The FG830 on the other hand is absolutely the yummiest student dread I have ever owned. Also have FG5 which is class above.

It's a really nice guitar for the price point, has that typical Martin sound and it even smelled lovely.
If I had a criticism it would only be that I found it to be hard work for fingerpicking, it didn't respond as well to a light touch - strummed and flat picked it was great. But then it is a dread' so perhaps I was expecting too much.
Would I have another one? Absolutely!

from what I remember, it had kind of a woofy sound, quite thick and ‘dry’. Sorry for the abstract description. I liked it though - wish I could have a strum on it now!
