Martin D-28 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Sunburst
Crafted to evoke the same powerful tone and sonorous projection as a pre-WWII D-28, this version of the D-28 differs only by using the much less scarce, and therefore more affordable, Indian rosewood instead of Brazilian rosewood. Using only premium-grade solid Indian rosewood for the back and sides and a solid Adirondack spruce top, the Marquis delivers powerful sounds with scalloped Adirondack spruce braces and forward-shifted X-bracing. A special aging toner gives the wood a vintage countenance.The list of historically accurate details, nearly overwhelming and totally exhaustive, captures the authentic spirit of the D-28: mahogany blocks/dovetail neck joint construction, slot-through saddle, herringbone binding, neck dart, zipper back marquetry, ivoroid binding, herringbone top trim, Waverly butterbean tuners, and old-style wood fiber rosette.It also has a beveled and polished tortoise pickguard; ebony bridge with long saddle; modified V-shaped neck; ebony fretboard (1-3/4" nut, 25-2/5" scale) with diamond and square inlays; and fossil ivory nut, saddle, and bridgepins (with black dots).Special Edition Series notables include the Golden Era decal on the peghead and a special inside label signed by C.F. Martin IV. This is an Indian rosewood version of the discontinued D-28GE.
