2024 Martin D-28 Dreadnought Guitar

Overview: When in doubt, go classic! No aspiring D-28 fan would be disappointed with this rig. It's almost-new, sounds tremendous, and has the retro feel to the left hand with its soft-V neck profile. It's also easy on the eyes -- the spruce on top has good grain and a silky look to it and the Indian rosewood on the back and sides almost has a glow/color sort-of like Madagascar rosewood.


Interesting features: The retro pickguard and tortoise-dot pins look nice, the build quality is high, and all of the details are crisp. Looks-wise, it's an interesting mix between a '30s-style guitar and a '50s-style one, borrowing cues from several eras.


Repairs included: It just got a quick setup -- it's playing bang-on and ready to go.
