Overview

A dreadnought guitar with bold tone and premium craftsmanship.

The Martin Custom Shop 28 Style Adirondack Spruce-Wild Grain East Indian Rosewood Dreadnought acoustic guitar brings together rare tonewoods and thoughtful craftsmanship. The Adirondack spruce top offers dynamic response, while the wild grain East Indian rosewood back and sides add depth and projection. Forward-shifted X-bracing enhances clarity for expressive players, and the modified low oval neck shape supports comfortable fretting during long sessions. Highly flamed koa accents deliver visual flair, and a gloss finish seals the body for lasting resonance. This dreadnought suits musicians who demand strong volume and nuanced control for solo work or ensemble settings, and it comes with a hardshell case for protection on the road.

Adirondack Spruce Top Drives Responsive Sound

The Adirondack spruce top reacts well to varied picking styles, producing a wide range of dynamics. Forward-shifted X-bracing supports the top, letting it vibrate freely for crisp articulation. This configuration helps notes ring with detail, making fingerstyle passages and strummed chords both stand out. Players can use touch to shift between subtle tones and bold projection, bringing life to any performance.

East Indian Rosewood Back and Sides Create Rich Harmonics

Wild grain East Indian rosewood shapes the guitar's tonal core, boosting low-end power and high-frequency clarity. The gloss finish preserves the wood and enhances grain patterns, while highly flamed koa binding and heelcap add visual depth. Together, these materials build a voice that stands out in the mix, letting players cut through dense arrangements or blend with other acoustic instruments.

Ebony Fingerboard and Modified Low Oval Neck Aid Playability

Ebony on the fingerboard resists wear and feels smooth for fast runs and complex chords. The modified low oval neck shape fits hands naturally, reducing fatigue over long sets. Grover nickel tuners keep the unit in tune, and the modern belly bridge with bone saddle maintains intonation. These features make setup and adjustment straightforward, so players can focus on technique and musicality.

Durable Construction With Premium Materials

Select hardwoods and a dovetail neck joint strengthen the overall build. Highly flamed koa accents and HD zigzag purfling add resilience along the edges. Bone components resist wear, and the hardshell case protects the instrument during travel. These details create a guitar that maintains sound and stability, even with regular use and frequent movement.

This model rewards players who want strong projection, detailed tone and reliable comfort.
