In \u003cstrong\u003eExcellent Condition\u003c\/strong\u003e, there are a few light scratches on the top by the bass side of the bridge, on the treble side of the back and normal pickguard wear. There are a couple scuffs on the treble side, and a small amount of finish flaking on the lower sides of the headstock. The bearclaw Sitka spruce top immediately stands out, adding visual character while delivering the powerful, articulate response that players expect from a great dreadnought. Paired with East Indian rosewood back and sides, the result is that unmistakable Martin sound. Big piano-like bass, rich overtones, and the kind of projection that fills a room without effort.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-p7Had40ydg\"\u003eThe herringbone trim and zig-zag backstrip tie this guitar directly to the pre-war heritage that made the HD-28 legendary. Forward-shifted scalloped bracing allows the top to move freely, giving the guitar a wide dynamic range that works beautifully for both aggressive flatpicking and a lighter touch. Whether you are driving a bluegrass band or just sitting in the living room working through a tune, this guitar responds with depth, balance, and clarity.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-45e90cba-939f-45b4-8bac-00b864a8d073\"\u003eCustom Shop Martins always feel a little special, and this one is no exception. From the gloss headstock with the mother-of-pearl Martin logo to the clean craftsmanship throughout, it captures everything players love about the HD-28 while adding the unique visual character of that bearclaw top. It is the kind of guitar that feels familiar the moment you pick it up, yet still has enough individuality to make it stand out.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-45e90cba-939f-45b4-8bac-00b864a8d073\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-45e90cba-939f-45b4-8bac-00b864a8d073\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-45e90cba-939f-45b4-8bac-00b864a8d073\"\u003eBody Shape: Dreadnought\u003cbr\u003eTop: Bearclaw Sitka Spruce\u003cbr\u003eBack And Sides: East Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eNeck: Select Hardwood\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-45e90cba-939f-45b4-8bac-00b864a8d073\"\u003eNeck Profile: Low Oval\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eBridge: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eBracing: Forward Shifted Scalloped X-Bracing\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25.4\" Nut Width: 1 3\/4\"\u003cbr\u003eBridge String Spacing: 2 5\/32\"\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Open Gear Nickel\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Gloss Nitrocellulose\u003cbr\u003eInlay: Diamonds And Squares Long Pattern\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Faux Tortoise\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-45e90cba-939f-45b4-8bac-00b864a8d073\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-45e90cba-939f-45b4-8bac-00b864a8d073\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ql-block\" data-block-id=\"block-fbbfa89b-ea9f-4498-bd7f-5c8442c94040\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a Dread-Not Certified Used Instrument?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUp to 90% trade-in value toward a future instrument, a professional inspection by our repair team, and a stage-ready setup you can trust are all part of what makes a Dread-Not Certified Used instrument different from typical used gear.
