Players searching for an acoustic guitar with a story to tell — and the scars to prove it — will love everything about the Martin D-28 Street Legend.The dreadnought: a fascinating back story Launched in 1906, Britain's HMS Dreadnought was the first all-big-gun battleship and the first to use steam-turbine propulsion. Larger, faster, quieter, and more deadly than any warship that had come before, it ushered in the modern era of naval warfare. In 1916, Martin, which had been handcrafting fine guitars since 1833, christened their new large-bodied acoustic guitars after the groundbreaking naval vessel. Ubiquitous today across musical genres, dreadnoughts deliver the volume and deep bass that makes them ideal for vocal accompaniment, solo work, and many other "unplugged" applications.A cornerstone of modern music Martin's early dreadnoughts set into motion the guitar's prominent role in modern music and set the standard for tone quality in acoustic guitars. Martin dreadnoughts became known for resonant warm tones, quality craftsmanship, and tasteful styling. For those reasons, Martin guitars became an important part of the music written and performed by the stars of the 1920s and '30s. The post-WWII D-28 became a cornerstone of the folk and folk rock music of the '50s and '60s. And the rest, as they say, is history. Powerful sound, full bass The D-28 Street Legend offers the deep bass response that's made Martin dreadnoughts so popular. Yet it also has a high-end presence that sings out even in heavy instrumentation. Martin's D-28 Street Legend is both loud and subtle and has a quick response. The powerful voice and full sound of the D-28 have made it a staple in the bluegrass world, but its bold sonic signature has been heard cross-genre.Quality tonewoods deliver timeless tone A quality acoustic guitar is all about the wood, and the Martin D-28 Street Legend serves up a classic tonewood cocktail with no compromises. This guitar's top is solid spruce for big projection and spectacular note clarity. Its back and sides are made of solid East Indian rosewood, a classic Martin material. A solid mahogany neck with a solid black ebony fingerboard gives the Martin D-28 Street Legend amazing playing ease to match its awesome sound.Martin D-28 Street Legend Acoustic Guitar Features: Iconic dreadnought design and tone from Martin Satin-finished spruce top includes visual wear inspired by historic models found in Martin's museum Forward-shifted X-bracing pattern for optimized soundboard vibration Solid East Indian rosewood back and sides for a well-balanced tonal range Modified Low Oval neck profile ensures maximum comfort and playability Focused low-frequency response that sounds tight, never boomy Aged open-gear tuners and a satin-aged pickguard complete the road-worn look Square-taper headstock with solid East Indian rosewood headplate stays true to Martin's heritage SpecificationDetail String Type Steel Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape Dreadnought Back & Sides Wood East Indian Rosewood Top Wood Spruce Top Finish Satin Color Custom Ink Body Bracing Forward Shifted X Brace Neck Wood Mahogany Neck Shape Modified Low Oval Fingerboard Material Ebony Fingerboard Inlay Mother-of-Pearl Number of Frets 20 Scale Length 25.4" Nut Width 1.75" Nut/Saddle Material Bone/Bone Bridge Material Ebony Tuning Machines Nickel Open Gear Strings Lifespan 2.0 92/8 Phosphor Bronze, .013-.056 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
