Martin's re-imagined D-28 is an excellent example of how innovation can be found in the details. Martin's legendary D-28 has been lovingly and artfully enhanced after nearly a century at the helm, a quintessential workhorse of music legends like Hank Williams, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and many more. During the 1950s and 1960s, the D-28 became a symbol of the folk and folk rock movements when it was at its peak." According to Chris Martin, Chairman and CEO of Martin Guitar, "We have taken the best features from both my grandfather's and my father's D-28." With the all new D-28, Martin's newest and most heralded innovations are merged with a rich history of guitars. In a new neck profile, the 184-year-old guitar maker has incorporated vintage appointments like open gear tuners, aged toner tops, antique white accents, and faux tortoise pickguards, resulting in 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!
