Martin 00-28 Acoustic Guitar - Grand Concert East Indian Rosewood | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The Martin 00-28 acoustic guitar represents the perfect blend of intimate playability and rich, resonant tone in Martin's beloved Grand Concert body size. This premium instrument combines a solid Sitka spruce top with East Indian rosewood back and sides, delivering the soft yet expressive voice with clear trebles and warm bass that has made the 00-28 a trusted choice for fingerstyle players and intimate performers. Enhanced with Martin's 2025 Standard Series improvements including Golden Era scalloped bracing and refined playability features, this guitar offers exceptional resonance and unmatched comfort in a smaller, more manageable body size.
Product Overview
Handcrafted with premium solid tonewoods including a carefully selected Sitka spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, the 00-28 showcases Martin's legendary construction methods in their most intimate and player-friendly body size. The Grand Concert design delivers exceptional note clarity and tonal balance that makes every playing nuance audible, from delicate fingerpicking to gentle strumming applications.
The 2025 Standard Series enhancements incorporate Golden Era scalloped bracing borrowed from Martin's premium Modern Deluxe Series, delivering vintage-inspired tone and sustain that maximizes the 00 body's natural resonance and projection capabilities. The shorter 24.9" scale length reduces string tension for comfortable playability while maintaining rich harmonic content and excellent intonation.
The signature herringbone purfling around the top and elegant abalone diamond and square inlays create the classic Martin aesthetic that has defined premium acoustic guitars for generations. The select hardwood neck features Martin's GE Modified Low Oval profile with high-performance taper, ensuring smooth, effortless playability that accommodates extended playing sessions and complex fingerings with minimal hand fatigue.
