After nearly a century at the helm, and as the quintessential
workhorse of music legends like Hank Williams, The Beatles,
Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and so many more, Martin's
legendary D-28 has been lovingly and artfully enhanced. “The post
WWII D-28 had a slightly different look than its predecessor and
became the centerpiece of the folk and folk rock movements at
their pinnacle in the 1950s and 1960s." says Chris Martin,
Chairman and CEO of Martin Guitar, "We have extracted the finest
features from the D-28 of both my grandfather’s and my father’s
respective eras.” The all new D-28 blends the rich history of the
guitar with Martin’s newest and most heralded innovations. The
184 year old guitar maker has combined vintage appointments,
including open gear tuners, an aged toner top, antique white
accents, and a faux tortoise pickguard with a new neck profile to
give D-28 enthusiasts a modern feel and comfortable playing
experience. Martin has also added forward-shifted bracing to
allow greater vibration of the top. The legend just got better!
