Martin D-28 Spruce Top Natural 1971 w/OHSC (Refret/Neck Reset)

Vintage Martin D-28 in Natural finish made in 1971 with Hard Shell Case. This acoustic guitar features a double bound rosewood back & sides body with a spruce top, mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard with a rosewood overlay headstock. The 25.4" scale length neck has mother of pearl dot inlays and white side markers with 20 medium jumbo Jescar 40080-220 frets on a 16" radius with a soft V profile. The hardware is comprised of nickel Grover "Patent Pending" Rotomatic tuning machines with kidney heads, a bone nut, an ebony base bridge w/ bone saddle and a single ply black pickguard.

This guitar is in overall good condition. It just received a neck reset and full refret by one of our luthiers here and is now ready to go for many more years of play. There are scratches and surface marks throughout. The headstock has some dents and dings. There are areas of hazy finish. A hole was drilled in the side at some point in its life to accommodate electronics, but they have since been removed. A hole was drilled into the neck heel at some point. The high E bridge pin does not match the rest. (See Pics)

Guitar is freshly setup and restrung with 12-53 strings. Includes Hard Shell Case.
