Sound Pure's Take
Great D-28! We all know how it is with guitars, these models in particular--some are so so, some are solid, some are stellar. This one turned heads in the office from the first G run! Growly, authoritative bass, just-enough mids, and keen, clear highs. There's a reason the D-28 has been guitar players' best friend material for decades--don't miss out on this one!
Condition: Used, Good
Good condition for a players guitar of this age, light buckle rash across the back and some dings/impressions on the front of the peghead.
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.
