Description

Martin Custom OM-28 Adirondack Spruce

Bridging the past and the present, the Martin Custom Shop OM, 28-Style is a nod to the prestigious lineage of Martin's acoustic excellence. As a privileged Martin Custom Shop Expert Dealer, Russo Music takes pride in offering this instrument, where time-honored tradition dovetails seamlessly with modern ingenuity.

The guitar features a top of Adirondack spruce that complements the expert-selected wild grain East Indian rosewood back and sides, achieving a visually arresting aesthetic and a sonically balanced tone. The resonance of the body is maintained by "Golden Era" scalloped X-bracing made of 1/4" Adirondack spruce, facilitating uninhibited top vibration whilst fortifying structural integrity.

Drawing from the elegance of traditional design, the Martin OM-28 Adirondack guitar features a staple of the 28-style—gorgeous abalone long pattern Diamonds and Squares inlays, gracing the dark, black ebony fingerboard. This visual delight underscores the timeless appeal of this classic 28-style design.

Expertly crafted for comfort and playability, the Martin Custom Shop OM-28 features a satin-finished Modified Low Oval neck. Along with the 16" fingerboard radius and 20 standard frets, it provides a slick and effortless navigation of the neck. The 25.4" scale length further enhances grip comfort and simplifies string handling.

Absence of electronics allows the instrument's inherent tonal qualities to speak for themselves. A modern belly ebony bridge equipped with a drop-in compensated bone saddle enhances string spacing and intonation. It is securely encased in a molded hardshell case, ready for whatever musical journey lies ahead.

The Martin Custom Shop OM, 28-Style is a testament to Martin's unwavering dedication to quality, historical appreciation, and the innovative drive that Russo Music and Martin Guitars share.
