The Martin OM-28 Modern Deluxe Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Natural offers a tried-and-true model with some modern appointments. A Heat-Treated Top, Gold Frets, and a carbon fiber bridge plate are just a couple of the amenities the Modern Deluxe Series is treated with.
The combo of Spruce and Indian Rosewood is a staple of any well-rounded guitar collection. Its warm, rich, full sound has captured the ears of millions of players over the decades and it continues to be one of the most sought-after tonewood combos to this day!
A neck made of Genuine Mahogany is carved to the Vintage Deluxe neck profile with a Standard Taper. The fingerboard is made from Ebony and has the Diamond and Square inlay pattern made of Abalone. Other important neck specs include 25.4" scale, a 1.75' nut width, and a bone nut.
"The OM-28 Modern Deluxe is a new take on Martin Vintage. This guitar is packed with custom features and modern technology that you have to see, feel, and hear for yourself. The vintage appointments include a spruce VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM® (VTS) top, a dovetail neck joint, and natural protein glue construction that give it the rich, fully aged Martin tone that has inspired generations. The look is unlike anything in our production line to date with European flamed maple binding, stylish gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and a unique 1930s-style script logo inlaid in pearl on the headstock. Some ultra-modern features include Liquidmetal® bridge pins with red dots and a composite carbon fiber bridgeplate that boosts volume. And we’ve included a new neck shape that is slightly asymmetrical for maximum hand comfort up and down the fretboard. This guitar is anything but standard."
