From Our Research Team:

The Performer's D-28!

The D-28 is a classic guitar, no doubt about it. And this D-28P is a version of the classic that's purpose-built for the modern performing player! This model of the iconic D-28 features Martin's comfortable (and increasingly popular) Performing Artist neck. The neck plays a bit faster than the traditional D-28's, thanks to a slimmer nut width and a slimmer taper. The feel lends itself to effortless lead work as you play up the neck, while keeping a comfortable spacing for standard chording on the first few frets. All the tone you know and love about the D-28 "cannon" is here in the D-28P. You get that incredible projection of the body and action style, while holding onto that timeless tone the solid Sitka Spruce top and solid East Indian Rosewood body create. If you're a player who respects tradition and appreciates modern playability, the Martin D-28P is just the Martin guitar for you.

Sometimes a picture is only worth 999 words

and your sales engineer has the final word. Such was the case when I asked Mark Bruhn to help me find the "perfect D-28P." The photos on the website were a good start, but....

I was l... read more [+]ooking for a studio guitar for acoustic recordings. After many, many auditions, it came down to the D-28P. I played one at a local shop and it was just so rich and full sounding. A wonderful guitar but a little shopworn. With this kind of investment, it had to be just right.

I've always appreciated the service that Sweetwater offers, so I put Mark to work. Mark took the time to evaluate every D-28P in stock and relay his observations. We discussed what I was looking for compared to the website photos and what he was looking at in person. We decided to wait for the next shipment from Martin.

When the "perfect D-28P" arrived a week later, Mark called and announced "This is it!" He was right, of course. This is simply the finest guitar I have had the pleasure to see, hear or play. It's not easy to find the right guitar via the internet or over a phone line but if you communicate with the right sales engineer, you can find your "perfect guitar." Thanks, Mark. close [-]

Outrageous job guys! It was a perfect order. My guitar arrived ready out of the box and tuned, cleaned, etc. Thanks a million. I have found the place to do my future buying. The prices are great and the service is second to none. Excellent service!
