Description

The Martin 000-28 from 1933 sits at a fascinating transitional point between the OM and 000 eras, retaining many late OM-style specifications while carrying the 000-28 designation. Its spruce top, Brazilian rosewood back and sides, mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard and bridge, 25.4" scale, and pronounced V-shaped neck give it the feel and construction associated with Martin’s early-1930s golden era.

This example has been refretted, had a neck reset, reglued back braces, a sealed crack near the end pin, and a sanded and reglued bridge. The back panel has also been oversprayed. It retains its original tuners, has no onboard electronics, and includes a Hoffee hardshell case.
