Here for sale we have a Martin D-28 in Gloss Natural finish. A dream guitar for many, this guitar was made in the USA in 2009 and features an all-solid construction consisting of Rosewood back and sides, Spruce top, Mahogany neck and 20 fret Ebony fingerboard. Other appointments include Grover tuning machines, Mulit-stripe purfling and Rosette and Ebony bridge.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the profile sitting very comfortably in the hand and providing easy fretting and ergonomic thumb positioning in all registers. The Ebony fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with attractive Mother of Pearl inlays adds a real sense of luxury to the playing experience. The traditional 16" radius remains as practical as ever, well suited to both chordal, fingerstyle and melodic playing styles across the register. The Dreadnought body shape is comfortable in the arms, with the all-solid construction ensuring a resonant and lively experience for the player.
The voice of the Martin D-28 is rich and beautiful, and really lives up to the reputation that this iconic guitar commands. The Rosewood back and sides provide a silky smooth bass response that remains detailed and accurate across the dynamic range. The mids are punchy and clear, and add a warmth and clarity to the tone. The top end is sparkly and bright, adding a glistening quality to every note played on the instrument. The dynamic range of the Martin D-28 is truly impressive. Gentle playing is rewarded with a very tender and soft tone, ramping smoothly up to the rich, loud chord strumming sound that the Dreadnought is renowned for. A truly fantastic example of an iconic instrument.
