The Player’s Choice for Tone and Comfort
Meet the Martin 000-28, a guitar that truly needs no introduction. For generations, this has been the quintessential workhorse for players who demand balanced, articulate tone in a comfortable package. The 000 body size is the sweet spot—big enough to deliver surprising volume and rich low-end, yet focused and compact enough to sit perfectly in your lap and in a mix. Whether you’re a fingerstyle aficionado or a flatpicker, the 000-28 responds to your touch with stunning clarity and warmth.
Timeless Tonewood Alchemy
It all starts with the classic pairing of a solid Spruce top and solid East Indian Rosewood back and sides. This combination is legendary for a reason. The Spruce top, enhanced with an elegant aging toner and scalloped X-bracing, provides the punch, headroom, and dynamic range. The Rosewood body supplies the deep, resonant bass and shimmering, complex overtones that make every note bloom. From delicate passages to powerful strumming, the sound is always rich, focused, and unmistakably Martin.
Modern Playability, Vintage Soul
While the tone is pure vintage, the feel is all about modern comfort. Martin spec’d this 000-28 with a Modified Low Oval neck profile and a High-Performance Taper. This neck is a joy to play—fast, comfortable, and substantial enough for a solid grip without ever feeling cumbersome. The shorter 24.9″ scale length reduces string tension for buttery-smooth bends and hours of fatigue-free playing. And with its Plek’d setup right from the factory, you’re guaranteed a flawless playing experience the moment you open the included hardshell case.
