The pictures are of the actual instrument for sale.

This particular guitar weighs 4 pounds 11.3 ounces.

This guitar's serial number is #1890339.


Condition: "This guitar is in excellent condition. It's free of any ding, dents, or aesthetic issues. There are some minor scratches on the back of the guitar, but nothing severe enough to be able to appear in pictures. There is no fret wear and this guitar looks, plays, and sounds fantastically!"


From Martin:

"Perhaps the most revered vintage D-28s are the ones created in 1937 with forward-shifted hand-scalloped X-bracing, an Adirondack spruce top, and a 1 3/4" neck width. This model is an updated version made with Madagascar rosewood back and sides, and it includes some subtle spec refinements to make it even more faithful to the original. One of the major updates is a more accurate body profile based on dreadnoughts from the 1930s and 40s. Martin’s VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM® (VTS) is employed to age the top and braces, which captures the tone from the 1930s era. Martin’s craftspeople can recreate the pleasing visual aesthetics of a vintage guitar and reproduce the particular tones previously reserved for vintage instruments."
