Martin D-28 (new)

Here we have a fantastic, brand new Martin D-28 flat top! This D-28 sounds tremendous and delivers a robust articulate tone that is very even across the tonal spectrum with a tight bass response and just the right amount of lively zing in the midrange and treble ranges to cut through the mix while retaining a generous amount of volume. A very fine sounding example from Martin indeed.

From Martin: The Martin D-28 has been the quintessential workhorse of music legends like Hank Williams, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and so many more. It’s no surprise because the D-28 is crafted with East Indian rosewood, which is very resonant and offers deep bass and rich overtones. It is a well-balanced guitar for all playing styles. It also combines vintage appointments like open gear tuners, an aged toner top, antique white accents, and a faux tortoise pickguard with a modern neck profile for a fast, comfortable playing experience.
