The Martin D-28 Satin Amberburst is a striking addition to the Martin Dreadnought family. This model is built with the same specifications as the standard D-28, but the beautiful amberburst finish on the top sets it apart from the crowd. The East Indian rosewood back and sides create an incredibly resonant body that boasts deep bass tones and rich overtones. The non-scalloped, forward-shifted X-brace pattern contributes to the guitar’s projection and clarity.
One of the most beloved tonewoods for guitar back and sides, rosewood has been a staple in the world of acoustic guitars for decades. Its unique tonal properties, including its pronounced bass response and warm, rounded overtones, make it an excellent complement to a spruce top. Rosewood also has the ability to increase the sustain and projection of a guitar, creating a rich, full-bodied sound that is highly sought after by professional musicians and enthusiasts alike. The East Indian Rosewood used in the Martin D-28 Satin Amberburst further enhances the guitar’s sonic characteristics, making it an ideal choice for players who value a well-balanced and versatile instrument. Whether you’re playing fingerstyle or strumming chords, this guitar offers a powerful and expressive voice that is sure to inspire your creativity.
The neck is crafted from mahogany and shaped in a modified low oval with high performance taper, making it comfortable and easy to play for any style of music. The ebony fingerboard is adorned with beautiful Mother of Pearl Style 28 inlays and boasts a 16″ radius for comfortable fretting across all 20 standard frets. The bone nut measures 1 3/4″ and the tuning machines feature nickel open gear with butterbean knobs for added stability and tuning precision.
The Martin D-28 Satin Amberburst is a gorgeous and powerful instrument that expertly balances projection, clarity, and sustain. The amberburst finish showcases the beauty of the spruce top, while the antique white binding adds a touch of classic elegance. This guitar is the perfect choice for any musician seeking a high-quality, versatile instrument with a unique look and sound.
