Sound Pure's Take
We love the collectors we work with and we -really- love when they sell us super clean, rare, desirable instruments--enter this gorgeous, limited edition D-28! The ultra comfortable Modified Low Oval neck profile is the cleanest of keys to unlocking all of the powerful, authoritative, dark, rich tone in this beautiful beast. Small but elegant touches like the fossilized ivory bridge pins, nut, and saddle as well as that gorgeous pane of Cocobolo on the headstock really elevate this dread above your standard D-28 in every way. Don't settle for anything but special--you just don't have to!
Condition: Used, Excellent
From Martin and Co.
The D-28 is the Dreadnought by which all others are judged. Constructed of solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, Sitka spruce top and mahogany neck, this instrument has been a favorite of artists from Hank Williams Sr. to Jimmy Page. Massive bass response balanced with articulate highs makes this a benchmark acoustic guitar and a must-have for every guitarist. Perfect for the intermediate and advanced player.
