[If only I had this] 2017 D-28

Martin / 2017 D-28 

Martin D-28, the king of acoustic guitars
This time we present a 2017 model.
This is a vintage-like guitar that has been used since November of the same year, but this is the one before the specification change.

From the exterior, the logo on the head is gold leaf, and chrome Grover pegs are used.
There is also a difference in the coloring of the top material, which has the rustic texture of Sitka spruce.
You can also enjoy the differences in small parts, such as the pickguard in black, binding in white, bridge pins in white with black dots, etc.

It is not only the appearance.

The neck shape is a low-profile, modern C-shape (the name may give the impression of being thin, but it is a very standard neck), and the taper from the low to high positions is reduced to a standard taper.
The actual measurement of the nut width is about 43mm.

The bracing is a non-scalloped standard X.
As for the sound impression, the response is quick, the sound is well relieved, and it sounds fresh and light.
L.R.Baggs' iBeam (Active) is installed as a retrofit,Electric AcousticIt can also be used as a

This is the one that matches those who are looking for the beautiful acoustic sound that only Martin can produce.
