ARTICLE N° 59994
Sometimes innovation is in the detail, and that's certainly how Martin has redesigned its D-28. After nearly a century of loyal service, including the sublimation of legendary songs by legendary artists, the famous D-28 has been lovingly and cleverly improved.
The post-World War II D-28 has been slightly modified in design, and has become the centrepiece of the folk and rock & folk movements of the 50s and 60s.
The new D-28 blends the rich history of this guitar with Martin's newest and most extensive innovations. This guitar combines vintage features like open gear tuners, an "Aging Toner" top finish, a tortoise-style pickguard and a new neck profile for a modern feel and comfortable playability, with top bracing that reduces stress on the soundboard for more power and amplitude. The legend, even better!

C.F. Martin and Co. has been building exceptional guitars for over 180 years. Founded in 1833 by Christian Martin Senior, the American firm has continued its work from generation to generation, spanning the centuries and the economic, social and political turmoil that has occurred over those many years, such as the Civil War, the Great Depression and many others.

Now run by Christian Frederick Martin IV, Martin Guitars has been able to adapt and constantly innovate, introducing new manufacturing techniques that remain an example for the guitar industry, such as the famous X-bracing, the 14th fret joint and the Dreadnought shape.

Adored by musicians and played by the greatest, Martin guitars have contributed to the development of most musical styles, from country to blues and from folk to rock. The list of Martin artists is long enough to sum up the history of modern music, with legends such as Elvis Presley, Paul McCartney, Johnny Cash, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Ben Harper, John Mayer and many more...
