Description

An artistic take on Martin's iconic 0-14 Fret body shape, the Martin Custom Shop 0-28 introduces a unique spin not usually found in the Custom Shop line. Top-shelf tonewoods, construction, and aesthetics all coalesce with this 0-14 Fret-style acoustic from the Martin Custom Shop with all the quality and musicality that implies.

The Martin Custom Shop 0-28 gives the Martin 0-style concert fans of the world really something to write home about. All the artistry the Custom Shop is known for shines in this 0-14 Fret to deliver on every level. Everything here starts simply with a 0-14 Fret body assembled with an Adirondack spruce top and East Indian rosewood back and sides. Its compact, concert-shaped body fits in the arms easily under stagelights or laid back on the couch while its tonewoods' elevated quality make for a classic Martin sound with character and nuance. Under the hood, this Custom Shop is lined with Adirondack spruce braces with Golden Era hand-shaped scalloped braces in an X-Brace pattern for projection and sustain.

At this point, a genuine mahogany neck enters with dovetail neck joint assembly. The neck's Golden Era Modified Low Oval profile couples with a High Performance taper for smooth moves across the full 24.9" scale. Abalone Diamond & Squares Long inlays land with an ebony fingerboard across twenty comfortable and articulate frets.

For a sturdy and playable experience, this Custom Shop 0 features a number of great hardware specs. A set of nickel open gear tuning machines and a bone nut land at the headstock for smooth stringing and intonation. Towards the opposite end of the scale, an ebony bridge in a Golden Era Modern Belly shape with a drop-in bone saddle appears for a solid transfer of motion string-to-body. Aesthetically, this Custom Shop features plenty of impressive elements like a Style 28 multi-stripe rosette, grained ivoroid binding, and an Aging Toner top color. This Martin Custom Shop 0 travels with an included hardshell case.

A 0-style Custom Shop to write home about, this 0-28 has got it all.
