It features GE-Scalloped bracing for greater brightness and projection, a lowered GE Modified Low Oval neck profile, a beveled heel, neck, and bridge for greater comfort, and bone bridge pins. It features a 44.45 mm nut, a 645 mm scale length, and a satin finish on the top, sides, and back.

Overview of the Martin & Co. D-28 StreetLegend (2025)

The satin-finished top of the new StreetLegend® model features some visible signs of wear, inspired by the historic models preserved in our museum. This gives your new guitar a worn look, reflecting an old soul, just like many of the fine instruments we've selected over the years. The D-28 StreetLegend is crafted with satin-finished East Indian rosewood back and sides, a highly resonant wood that delivers deep lows and rich harmonics. It's a well-balanced guitar, suitable for all playing styles. It also includes aged open-gear tuning machines and an aged satin pickguard to complete the aesthetic. If you're looking for a Standard Series guitar that stands out from the crowd, the D-28 StreetLegend is the one for you.

One of the key innovations of the 2025 Standard Series is the use of Golden Era (GE) Sitka spruce top bracing, a detail also found on the Modern Deluxe Series, which provides a more vintage and airy tone with enhanced sustain. The modified "Low Oval" GE neck profile retains the classic shape but has been optimized for a vintage appeal. The fingerboard has been thinned and features rounded edges for greater comfort, while the string layout at the nut has been refined. The new GE "modern belly" bridge features softer, more comfortable angles. Standard Series guitars now feature bone or ebony bridge pins, depending on the model. Aesthetic updates include an extended neck diamond, an angled nut, and a more articulated, vintage-style heel.
