In fact, the timeless combo of Sitka Spruce and Indian rosewood has been heard so many times, that it is a guaranteed recipe for success. However, a new neck profile and forward-shifted bracing pay homage to both the future and past by offering an unheralded level of playability to match with an even more vintage-sounding D-28. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShifting the \u003ca title=\"Learn about Sitka Spruce as a tonewood for guitar\" href=\"https:\/\/musicgalleryinc.com\/blogs\/glossary-of-guitar-terms-the-music-gallery\/what-is-spruce\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSitka Spruce\u003c\/a\u003e Braces forward allows for the top to project and flex more.

Providing a striking contrast to the light aging toner on the otherwise blonde Spruce top. A dovetail neck joint used to adhere to the body and neck is a time-tested and preferred method of build for most. It results in what many consider to be a superior sounding and playing guitar, ultimately. The neck features the Golden Era modified oval shape, high-performance neck taper, a nut width of 1.75\" and scale length of 25.4\". It's a very classic feeling Martin but with the added benefits of having gone through the Plek Process during manufacturing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSometimes innovation is in the details and this is certainly true with Martin’s re-imagined D-28. After nearly a century at the helm, and as the quintessential workhorse of music legends like Hank Williams, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and so many more, Martin's legendary D-28 has been lovingly and artfully enhanced. “The post-WWII D-28 had a slightly different look than its predecessor and became the centerpiece of the folk and folk-rock movements at their pinnacle in the 1950s and 1960s.\" says Chris Martin, Chairman and CEO of Martin Guitar, \"We have extracted the finest features from the D-28 of both my grandfather’s and my father’s respective eras.” The all-new D-28 blends the rich history of the guitar with Martin’s newest and most heralded innovations. The 184-year-old guitar maker has combined vintage appointments, including open gear tuners, an aged toner top, antique white accents, and a faux tortoise pickguard with a new neck profile to give D-28 enthusiasts a modern feel and comfortable playing experience. Martin has also added forward-shifted bracing to allow greater vibration of the top.
