  • Front of Martin D28MDLXSW
    The D-28 Modern Deluxe brings cutting edge innovations to Martin’s beloved HD-28. Vintage-style features include a Sitka spruce Vintage Tone System (torrefied) top with herringbone trim, a dovetail neck joint, and natural protein glue construction. The look is unlike anything in Martin's production line to date, with flamed maple binding, gold frets and open‐gear tuners, plus a '30s style script logo inlaid in pearl on the headstock. Modern features include a titanium truss rod, Liquidmetal bridge pins with red dots, and a carbon fiber bridgeplate that boosts volume without adding weight. The new neck shape is designed for maximum hand comfort up and down the fretboard. Shopworn with minor ding on top at the lower bout.
    The exact appearance of this item may vary.
