(Used) 2023 Martin D-28 Sitka/Rosewood Satin Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar #2573
The 2023 Martin D-28 in satin finish offers the unmistakable sound and feel of one of Martin’s most iconic dreadnoughts. With a solid Sitka spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, this guitar produces the rich bass response and balanced projection that have defined the D-28 for generations. The forward-shifted, non-scalloped bracing brings strength and clarity, while the 25.4-inch scale and ebony fingerboard provide that classic Martin playing experience. Vintage-inspired details like open-gear butterbean tuners, antique white binding, and tortoise pickguard add to the timeless look.
This example is in excellent condition overall, showing some light scratches on the pickguard, a small finish blemish below the heel, and a few dings on the headstock. The saddle is low with minimal neck relief, and while fully playable today, a future neck reset may be required if the action continues to rise. It includes all factory paperwork and ships in its molded hardshell case, making it a strong option for players who want the D-28 voice with the lighter feel of a satin finish.
