From Our Research Team:

A Custom Martin with Classic Craftsmanship

The Martin Custom 00-28 acoustic guitar embodies premium tonewoods and top-notch attention to detail, giving you the sound and look of a classic and collectible Martin. You'll enjoy solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, adorned with a premium Adirondack spruce top. The top is braced with golden-era-style spruce bracing for exceptional tonality and projection. The fine mahogany neck sports a bound ebony fretboard, which plays as good as it looks. With elegant touches like the European flamed maple body binding, and the old-school headstock, the Martin Custom 00-28 acoustic guitar is a very original, highly collectible instrument.

Martin Custom 00-28 Acoustic Guitar at a Glance:
  • Great tone from premium wood
  • Exceptional tonal balance from the Grand Concert body style
  • Tonal richness will enhance with age

Great tone from premium wood
With a premium Adirondack spruce top, premium East Indian rosewood back and sides, and a fine mahogany neck, the Martin Custom 00-28 is a tone-lover's dream come true. The spruce top adds a sweetness to the mids while allowing the highs to ring out clearly. And balanced tone and astonishing projection abound, thanks to the Custom 00-28's East Indian rosewood back and sides. The ebony fretboard adds to your warm tone, with a touch of high end shine. Fossilized ivory at the nut and saddle maximize string vibrational transfer across the guitar.

Exceptional tonal balance from the Grand Concert body style
Arguably one of the most comfortable body styles for acoustic guitars, the Martin Custom 00-28 has a smaller than average Grand Concert shape. It's the perfect fit when you're looking for a more manageable instrument than larger body styles offer. It also means the Custom 00-28 is a particularly good fit if you're a fingerstyle player.

Tonal richness will enhance with age
One reason that vintage Martin guitars sound so rich and captivating is that they've had years to age and mature. Solid wood guitars flex over the years and their tone "settles in" after lots of playing, especially if hide glue is used like on the Custom 00-28. The Custom 00-28 sounds amazing right out of the case - but give it five or ten years, and you'll be blown away by the additional harmonic richness that develops over time.

Martin Custom 00-28 Acoustic Guitar Features:
  • Custom acoustic guitar, built like an original 00-28 with old-school style
  • Color: Natural
  • Grand Concert body style has a smaller feel that's extremely popular for fingerpicking
  • Exceptionally rich and balanced tone from the Adirondack spruce top and East Indian rosewood body
  • Polished gloss finish uses an aging toner to create a finely-aged appearance
  • Fossilized ivory nut and saddles for fantastic long-term reliability
  • European flamed maple binding
  • Hardshell case included

The Martin Custom 00-28 is built like a classic!
