A solid spruce top on a Modified 0-14 Fret body with a short 23\" scale makes it small enough to keep within arm's reach of the couch and light enough to throw in the back of a car, and the Fishman Presys VT system fitted as standard means it can go straight into a PA or an interface. It ships in a soft gig bag, which tells you a fair bit about how Martin expects you to treat it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Modified 0-14 Fret body and a 23-inch scale\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a genuinely small guitar, not a slightly trimmed dreadnought. The Modified 0 body sits comfortably against you sitting down, and the 23\" scale pulls the strings to pitch at noticeably lower tension than a full-size Martin, so chords take less grip and bends come easier — handy for beginners, and handy for anyone whose hands are tired at the end of a night. The nut measures 1 11\/16\" across with 2 1\/8\" spacing at the bridge, there are twenty frets, and the neck meets the body at the fourteenth on a mortise and tenon joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid spruce top over mahogany-pattern HPL\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top is solid spruce, and that is the part doing the acoustic work: it flexes, it projects and it opens up as you play it in. Underneath sits a non-scalloped spruce X-brace in 5\/16\" stock, a sturdier pattern than you would find on a concert instrument and the reason a guitar this size still pushes decent volume when strummed hard. The back and sides are high-pressure laminate in a mahogany pattern rather than solid timber, which keeps the box rigid and reflective and focuses the sound out through that spruce top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eComposite construction that shrugs off humidity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is Rust Birch Laminate and the fingerboard and bridge are FSC certified Richlite, a dense composite. That is a deliberate specification, not a corner cut. Laminates and composites barely move with heat and moisture, so this guitar handles a Queensland summer, a camping trip, a caravan or a month of air-conditioned dryness without the cracking, shrinking or seasonal fret-sprout that a solid-timber instrument can suffer. Richlite is also hard and slick under the fingers and wears extremely well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFishman Presys VT under the saddle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LX1E comes with a Fishman Presys VT system fitted from the factory — the E in the model name. Plug a lead in and it drives a PA, a small acoustic amp or a recording interface directly, so a busking spot, a jam or a quick demo needs nothing more than the guitar and a cable. The pickup sits under a compensated white TUSQ saddle cut to a 16\" radius, with a white Corian nut at the other end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA first Martin, a couch guitar, and the one that lives in the car\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything about the LX1E is workmanlike: no binding, no fingerboard inlays, white side dots, a multi-stripe rosette, chrome enclosed-gear tuners and a script ink logo on the headstock. It looks and feels like a tool, and it is a real Martin rather than a novelty — a solid spruce top, Martin's own Modified Low Oval neck shape and standard taper, scaled down and specified to survive being carried around. Factory strings are Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Phosphor Bronze in Medium gauge, and the soft gig bag it ships in is ready to sling over a shoulder on the way out the door.

This is the flat-top that keeps turning up on record after record, decade after decade: solid Sitka spruce over solid East Indian rosewood, forward-shifted scalloped X bracing, ebony board and bridge, bone at the nut and the saddle. The current Y25 build refines that recipe with GE-scalloped bracing, the GE Modified Low Oval neck and bone through the hardware. Antique White binding, Style 28 appointments and a moulded hardshell case complete it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid Sitka spruce over solid East Indian rosewood\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSitka spruce is stiff for its weight, which is why it moves so readily under a pick and keeps getting more open the more hours you put into it. The solid East Indian rosewood back and sides push a deep, dry low end and a bell-like top end out through that top, with the long decay that makes rosewood dreadnoughts so recognisable in a mix. Strummed, this guitar fills a room without effort; flatpicked, single notes come out with real weight behind them and hang in the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eForward-shifted, GE-Scalloped X bracing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe X-brace sits forward of where a standard pattern places it, closer to the soundhole, which frees up more of the top behind the bridge to vibrate. Martin then scallops the 5\/16\" spruce braces to its GE profile, carving away mass where the top does not need stiffening. The result is a top that responds to a light touch instead of demanding you hit it hard, yet still holds its shape when you lay into a bluegrass rhythm part with a heavy pick — the balance that made this bracing pattern famous in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe GE Modified Low Oval neck and High-Performance Taper\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck carve is Martin's GE Modified Low Oval with the High-Performance Taper: a low shoulder that fills the palm without crowding it, paired with a taper that keeps the fingerboard comfortable for chording down low and for lead work higher up. The scale is the long 25.4\", which holds the strings at firm tension and keeps big open chords defined rather than woolly. The nut is 1 3\/4\" wide and the fingerboard measures 2 1\/8\" across at the twelfth fret, giving fingerstyle players room to work between strings, with 2 5\/32\" spacing at the bridge. Martin does not name the neck timber — the spec reads Select Hardwood — and it wears a satin finish in the colour Martin calls Dark Mahogany. A glued dovetail holds it to the body at the fourteenth fret, still the most rigid way to join a neck and a large part of why decades-old Martins remain playable instruments rather than wall hangings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEbony fingerboard, ebony bridge and bone where it counts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fingerboard and the GE Modern Belly bridge are ebony: hard, tight-grained, slick under the fingers and unfussy over decades of use. The bridge takes a drop-in compensated bone saddle cut to a 16\" radius, with a bone nut at the other end and bone bridge pins with faux tortoise dots. Bone is denser and more consistent than plastic or synthetic substitutes, it transfers more of the string's energy into the top, and it holds a slot without notching. Twenty frets, with Style 28 mother-of-pearl dot inlays and white side dots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAntique White binding and Style 28 detailing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D-28 has never been a flashy guitar and this one keeps that discipline. Antique White trim runs the outline of the guitar — binding, heel cap and endpiece all in the same warm off-white, which reads as aged rather than stark against the dark rosewood. A Style 28 multi-stripe rosette rings the soundhole and a faux tortoise pickguard sits beside it. Up top, a square-tapered headstock with the diamond shape wears an East Indian rosewood headplate and the Script Old Style overlay logo, and the nickel open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs are light on the head and smooth to turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNatural gloss with an aging toner top\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the standard right-handed D-28 in Natural gloss: gloss over the back and sides showing the rosewood grain wet and dark, and a gloss top carrying Martin's aging toner so the spruce looks lightly warmed and lived-in instead of raw white. Gloss on a rosewood body is worth having — it seals the timber properly and it is the finish that shows off figure in the back. The neck is deliberately left satin, which is the finish that lets a thumb travel freely instead of dragging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePleked, purely acoustic, and a moulded hardshell case\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery D-28 is Pleked before it leaves the factory: a machine reads the fingerboard and every fret while the neck is held at playing tension, then levels and crowns the frets to match what it found. That is how the action can sit low without rattling and how notes stay in tune with themselves all the way to the twentieth fret. Martin strings it at the factory with Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Phosphor Bronze in Medium gauge, and it travels in a moulded hardshell case — plush lining, interior form-fitted to the dreadnought, hard shell outside — which is the protection a solid rosewood guitar deserves coming through freight to an Australian address. Note that this is the acoustic-only D-28: there is no pickup and no preamp, and no holes have been cut in the rim, so nothing interferes with how the top and braces move. If you want to plug in, ask us about the D-28E, a separate model that carries LR Baggs Anthem electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet up in-store by Guitar World Australia's techs before it ships to you, so it plays perfectly the moment it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMartin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMartin D-28\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDreadnought\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBody Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eD-14 Fret\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNumber of Strings\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBracing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE-Scalloped (scalloped) Forward-Shifted X-Brace\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eRosette\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle 28 Multi-Stripe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNeck Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSelect Hardwood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNeck Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE Modified Low Oval High-Performance Taper\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNeck Joint\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDovetail (joins body at 14th fret)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eScale Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25.4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNut Width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 3\/4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNut\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eFingerboard\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEbony\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eFrets\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003ePosition Markers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle 28 mother-of-pearl dots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBridge\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEbony GE Modern Belly - Drop in Saddle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eSaddle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompensated Bone, 16\" radius\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eTuners\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNickel Open Gear with butterbean knobs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBinding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAntique White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003ePickguard\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFaux Tortoise\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eStrings\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuthentic Acoustic Lifespan® 2.0 Phosphor Bronze - Medium (factory-strung)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eIncludes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMolded Hardshell case (form-fitted interior, plush lining, molded exterior)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eLeft Handed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Martin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52619878498594,"sku":"SSD28","price":4788.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/0066\/2818\/files\/Y25D28_f__84661.1785389912.1280.1280.jpg?v=1790234659"},{"product_id":"martin-d-jr-e-dreadnought-junior-acoustic-electric-guitar","title":"Martin DJR E Dreadnought Junior Acoustic-Electric Guitar","description":"\u003ch1\u003eMartin D Jr E Dreadnought Junior Acoustic-Electric Guitar\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Martin D Jr E Dreadnought Junior acoustic-electric takes the shape that defined the flat-top guitar and builds it at a size you will actually reach for every day. Spruce top, sapele back and sides, scalloped spruce X bracing and a hand-applied satin neck finish — this is a Martin, not a starter guitar wearing the name. Martin E1 electronics are fitted from the factory, it arrives strung with Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Phosphor Bronze Lights, and it travels in a waterproof softshell case with backpack straps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA dreadnought scaled down, not watered down\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is Martin's D Junior 14-fret shape: recognisably dreadnought across the shoulders and waist, just shallower and shorter front to back. Scalloped spruce X bracing at a 1\/4-inch brace size keeps the top moving freely, so strummed chords still push air and fingerpicked lines keep their bottom end instead of thinning out the way small bodies often do. Sit down with it and it feels like a guitar built for close-quarters playing — the couch, the campfire, a hotel room — rather than a compromise you tolerate on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpruce top over sapele back and sides\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpruce on top gives you the clear attack and headroom that lets a heavy right hand stay clean, while sapele on the back and sides fills in the mids and keeps single notes warm and woody rather than glassy. Both are finished in satin, which leaves the wood feeling like wood under your forearm and lets the body vibrate without a thick gloss shell damping it. The satin also ages gracefully — scuffs and playing wear read as character instead of damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eShort 24.9-inch scale and the High-Performance Taper neck\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 24.9-inch scale drops string tension noticeably against a full-size dreadnought, so barre chords take less grip and bends come easier — a genuine help for smaller hands, younger players and anyone with cranky fingers. Martin's PA Profile neck in select hardwood is cut with the High-Performance Taper, measuring 1 3\/4 inches at the nut and 2 1\/8 inches across the fingerboard at the twelfth fret, which gives fingerstyle players room between strings without feeling like a classical neck. Twenty frets, with the neck joining the body at the fourteenth via a mortise and tenon joint, keep the upper register reachable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMartin E1 electronics for stage and PA use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin's own E1 system is installed at the factory, so you can run straight into an acoustic amp, a PA desk or an interface without an aftermarket retrofit and the drilling that comes with it. Plugged in, the D Jr E holds onto the woody character it has acoustically instead of turning brittle, which makes it a straightforward choice for busking, open mics and small rooms. Unplugged it is still a fully acoustic guitar — the electronics are there when you need them, not a crutch the instrument leans on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRichlite fingerboard and bridge, PLEK-finished frets\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFSC-certified Richlite handles fingerboard and bridge duty: a dense, dark composite that shrugs off humidity swings far better than most timber, which matters if you live somewhere the wet season is a real thing. A white TUSQ saddle sits in a Sloped Modern Belly Junior bridge with a 16-inch radius and 2 5\/32-inch string spacing, over a white Corian nut, and every guitar goes through Martin's PLEK process so fret levelling and slot depths are machine-accurate before it leaves the bench. The practical upshot is low, even action across the neck with no dead spots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUnderstated appointments, honest details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack binding frames the natural satin top, a single ring of faux abalone circles the soundhole with a multi-stripe inlay behind it, and Style 28 faux abalone markers run the fingerboard with white side dots for stage visibility. The headplate is Brazilian Rosewood HPL — a hard-wearing patterned laminate — carrying the script ink logo, with small-knob satin chrome enclosed-gear tuners above and a faux tortoise pickguard below.

Solid spruce over solid East Indian rosewood, forward-shifted scalloped X bracing and Medium-gauge strings from the factory give it a big, deep, authoritative voice with the headroom to take a hard right hand. The abalone and Style 45 detailing is the work of people who have been doing this a very long time — quiet craft rather than sparkle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid spruce, solid East Indian rosewood, dreadnought scale\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the classic recipe for a flat-top with real low end. The solid spruce top moves easily and keeps opening up over years of playing; the solid East Indian rosewood back and sides push a deep, dense bass and a bell-like treble around it, with the long sustain that separates rosewood from mahogany. In a D-14 fret dreadnought body that adds up to a guitar that fills a room on its own, holds its own against a fiddle and a mandolin, and still rewards a quiet fingerpicked verse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eForward-shifted scalloped X bracing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoving the X-brace closer to the soundhole leaves more of the top free to vibrate behind the bridge, which deepens the bass and lets the whole top respond with more authority. Martin uses 5\/16\" spruce braces here, GE-scalloped so the top is light where it should be and strong where it has to be. The result is the pre-war dreadnought behaviour players go looking for: a big fundamental, a fast bloom, and enough structure that heavy strumming does not turn into mud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMedium strings from the case\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the other Standard Series guitars in this shipment come with Light strings, the D-41 arrives strung with Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Phosphor Bronze in Medium gauge, and that is a real difference under the fingers. Medium strings need a firmer left hand and a more deliberate pick attack, and in return they drive the top harder for more volume, more low end and more headroom before the note distorts. It is the right choice for flatpicking and bluegrass rhythm; if you prefer a lighter feel, dropping to Light gauge is a simple string change and a setup tweak, and it is worth asking us to do it before the guitar leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAppointments done as craft\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pearl work here is the reason this model sits above the rest of the line, and it is done with restraint. Abalone with multi-stripe purfling frames the top and rings the soundhole, Style 45 back purfling with a black stripe runs the centre seam, and antique white binding edges the body, the fingerboard, the heelcap and the endpiece. The ebony board carries reduced hexagon abalone inlays with black side dots, the bone bridge pins are dotted with abalone, and the East Indian rosewood headplate is bound in antique white with multi-stripe and wears the Block Inlay Golden Era logo. Gold open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs finish the headstock — geared, exposed and easy to service decades from now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNeck, board and dovetail joint\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is genuine mahogany, carved to Martin's GE Modified Low Oval profile with the High-Performance Taper and finished satin so your hand slides rather than sticks. It runs a 25.4\" scale with a 1 3\/4\" bone nut and 2 5\/32\" spacing at the bridge, so there is width for fingerstyle and enough tension to keep a flatpicked line crisp. The ebony fingerboard is 2 1\/8\" across at the twelfth fret with twenty frets total, the neck joins the body at the fourteenth, and it is set with a glued dovetail — the joint that keeps well-cared-for Martins playable generations later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBone hardware and a Pleked fingerboard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBone nut, compensated bone saddle sitting in a drop-in slot on the ebony belly bridge, bone bridge pins: harder and denser than plastic, better at passing string energy into the top, and far more durable through years of restringing. The saddle is cut to a 16\" radius to match the board. The guitar is also Pleked, meaning a machine measured the fingerboard and every fret under simulated string tension and then levelled and dressed the frets to that measurement — hand-level precision held to tighter tolerances, so the action can sit low without rattle and notes stay accurate right up the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGloss finish and a hardshell case\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top, back and sides are gloss, the neck satin, and the spruce top carries an aging toner that lends it a warmed, lived-in colour instead of raw white — a nice counterpoint to the dark rosewood and the pearl. It ships in a Martin hardshell case with a laminated wood shell and plush interior, which is the protection this instrument deserves both in transit across Australia and for the decades after. Martin builds this model left-handed as well if that is what you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet up in-store by Guitar World Australia's techs before it ships to you, so it plays perfectly the moment it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMartin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eD-41\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDreadnought\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBody Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eD-14 Fret\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNumber of Strings\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBody Top\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid Spruce\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBody Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBracing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE-Scalloped Forward-Shifted X-Brace\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eRosette\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbalone with Multi-Stripe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNeck Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGenuine Mahogany\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNeck Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE Modified Low Oval High-Performance Taper\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNeck Joint\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDovetail Neck Joint\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eScale Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25.4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNut Width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 3\/4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNut\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eFingerboard\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEbony\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eFingerboard Width at 12th\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 1\/8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eFingerboard Binding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAntique White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eFrets\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 total\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003ePosition Markers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReduced Hexagon, Abalone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eBridge\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEbony GE Modern Belly -

Add the 000 Junior 14-fret body and a short 24.9-inch scale and you get an instrument that sits comfortably against your ribs and rewards a light touch. Martin E1 electronics come fitted, it arrives strung with Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Phosphor Bronze Lights, and a waterproof softshell case with backpack straps is part of the deal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe 000 Junior 14-fret body\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin's 000 shape has always been the auditorium middle ground — narrower waist than a dreadnought, easier to hold, more even across the strings — and the Junior version shrinks it again without losing that balance. Scalloped spruce X bracing at a 1\/4-inch brace size lets the top respond to a fingerpicked phrase as readily as a strum, so quiet playing stays articulate instead of disappearing. If you have ever found a full-size dreadnought a wrestle across the right forearm, this is the body shape that fixes it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSapele top, sapele back and sides\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSapele is the headline here, and it is worth being clear about: the top is sapele, not spruce. That single choice reshapes how the guitar behaves — the attack is softer and less percussive, the midrange sits forward, and the whole instrument compresses a little as you dig in rather than getting spiky. It suits singers who need the guitar to sit under a voice rather than compete with it, and it is very forgiving of recording close with a single microphone. Satin finish across the top, back and sides in a natural stain shows off sapele's ribbon-like figure without a glossy layer in the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShort 24.9-inch scale and the High-Performance Taper neck\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 24.9-inch scale means less tension under the fingers than a long-scale flat-top, which makes chord changes less work and helps enormously if you are building calluses or coming back to playing after years away. The select hardwood neck uses Martin's PA Profile with the High-Performance Taper, 1 3\/4 inches at the nut and 2 1\/8 inches at the twelfth fret, so there is genuine room between the strings for fingerstyle without the neck feeling wide in the hand. It carries 20 frets and joins the body at the fourteenth with a mortise and tenon joint, and a hand-applied finish on the back of the neck keeps it fast rather than sticky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMartin E1 electronics, installed at the factory\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe E1 system is Martin's own, fitted before the guitar ships, so plugging into an acoustic amp, a PA or an audio interface needs nothing more than a cable. Because the guitar already leans warm and mid-forward acoustically, it plugs in politely — you are not fighting a harsh top end to make it sit in a mix. Left alone and unplugged it is still a complete acoustic guitar, which is exactly how most owners will spend most of their time with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSelect hardwood board and bridge, PLEK-finished frets\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFingerboard and bridge are both select hardwood, with a Sloped Modern Belly Junior bridge, 2 5\/32-inch string spacing and a white TUSQ saddle cut to a 16-inch radius over a white Corian nut. Every one of these goes through Martin's PLEK process, which levels the frets and cuts the nut slots to measured tolerances rather than by feel, and that is the difference between an instrument that plays low and clean and one that buzzes in the third position. Diamond and Squares faux abalone markers run the board with white side dots for reading the neck on a dim stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOpen-gear tuners, ebony pins and a deliberately plain finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no binding on this guitar and no top inlay — just a single fibre ring around the soundhole, a faux tortoise pickguard, and nickel open-gear tuners with black plastic buttons that suit the stripped-back look. Ebony bridge pins without dots and a Brazilian Rosewood HPL headplate carrying the script ink logo round it out. It is a working guitar's aesthetic, and a left-handed version is available as a separate model if that is what you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSoftshell case and Lifespan 2.0 strings included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt ships in a Martin softshell case — waterproof shell, internal padding and backpack straps — so getting it to a rehearsal, a beach house or an airport gate does not mean buying a case first.

Its back, sides and headplate are Brazilian Rosewood HPL — Martin's high-pressure laminate, pressed with a Brazilian rosewood pattern — which means dark, dramatic looks paired with a body that barely notices humidity, heat or the back of a hot car. A spruce top, scalloped X bracing and Martin's E-1 electronics with an onboard chromatic tuner do the musical work, and it ships in a waterproof softshell case with backpack straps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Brazilian Rosewood HPL actually is\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet us be straight about it, because the name invites confusion: the back, sides and headplate are high-pressure laminate carrying a Brazilian rosewood pattern, not rosewood timber. That is a feature of this guitar rather than a caveat. HPL is dimensionally stable, so it does not shrink, swell, crack or develop finish checking when the air goes from air-conditioned dry to Queensland-summer humid, and it is genuinely tough — the reason X Series guitars survive touring, share houses, festivals and years of being handed around. Visually it is striking, with the deep chocolate grain pattern you would expect from the name, and there are no CITES restrictions hanging over it when you travel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpruce top with 5\/16-inch scalloped bracing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top is spruce under a hand-rubbed satin finish, braced with a scalloped spruce X pattern at a 5\/16-inch brace size. Martin lists the top simply as spruce and does not publish a construction designation for it, so we are not going to invent one — what we can tell you is how it behaves. It has real snap on the attack, holds together when you strum hard, and because the HPL back and sides reflect rather than absorb, the guitar throws sound forward in a way that cuts through a noisy room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e000 auditorium body, 24.9-inch scale\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 000-14 fret auditorium shape is the shape a lot of players end up at: narrower at the waist than a dreadnought, comfortable seated for hours, and even enough across the strings that fingerpicking and flatpicking both work without a fight. Paired with the 24.9-inch scale, string tension stays moderate, so chord shapes take less grip and bends give more easily than on a long-scale guitar. It is a full-size instrument that just happens to be an easy one to hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMartin E-1 electronics with a built-in chromatic tuner\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin's E-1 system is fitted from the factory and gives you volume, tone and phase controls plus a built-in chromatic tuner, so you can arrive at a gig with nothing but a cable and still tune between songs without unplugging or clipping anything to the headstock. The phase control is the useful one nobody mentions: it lets you kill the low-end feedback howl that turns up when you are standing in front of a monitor. Straight into a PA, an acoustic amp or an interface, it behaves predictably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSelect hardwood neck and board, PLEK-finished frets\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is select hardwood in Martin's PA Profile with the High-Performance Taper — 1 3\/4 inches at the nut, 2 1\/8 inches across the board at the twelfth fret — with a hand-rubbed finish that stays quick under the thumb. The fingerboard and Sloped Modern Belly bridge are select hardwood too, with a white TUSQ saddle cut to a 16-inch radius, 2 5\/32-inch string spacing and a white Corian nut. Twenty frets, a mortise and tenon neck joint at the fourteenth, and Martin's PLEK process levelling the frets and cutting the nut slots to measured tolerances before it ships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAppointments and hardware\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no binding to interrupt the lines of the body — the finish is satin front and back, with a single abalone-pattern ring at the soundhole and Style 28 abalone-pattern markers along the fingerboard.

The 00 body — the size Martin has long called the Grand Concert — sits comfortably against your ribs and rewards a player who works close to the microphone or the sofa rather than the back of a room. Everything Martin normally spends on cosmetics has been left out, and what remains is a genuinely fine guitar for people who play them for a living.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA 00 body, not a dreadnought\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin lists the shape as 00-14 Fret, joining the neck at the fourteenth fret on the narrower of Martin's two mid-size outlines. It is a compact guitar with a tight waist, which means the note arrives quickly and stops when you tell it to rather than blooming on and swallowing the next one. Fingerpickers and anyone recording at home tend to fall for this size first. Note that its sibling in this batch, the 000-15M StreetMaster, is the larger 000 Auditorium — these two are often confused, and they are not the same guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid mahogany, top to back\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTop, back and sides are all solid mahogany, finished in Dark Mahogany. A mahogany top behaves differently from spruce: it is drier, more focused in the midrange and less inclined to spread out into overtones, so chords stay legible and single notes keep their edge. Inside, Martin uses a non-scalloped spruce X-brace at 5\/16\", which keeps the top under control and helps the guitar hold its shape under a firm right hand. The neck goes on with a simple dovetail joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSatin, no binding, no apology\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe finish is satin throughout and there is no binding anywhere on the instrument — the woods simply meet. This is the deliberate 15 Series look, not a cost-cutting accident, and satin has the practical advantage of showing fingerprints far less than gloss while letting the mahogany move and breathe. The one flourish is on the fingerboard: an abalone Diamonds and Squares short pattern, which is a lovely piece of detail on a guitar this plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe neck, and how it plays\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelect hardwood neck, Modified Low Oval profile, Standard Taper, with a 25.4\" scale length and a 1 11\/16\" nut width. The fingerboard is East Indian rosewood, 20 frets, measuring 2 1\/8\" across at the twelfth. That combination is Martin's familiar all-rounder feel — enough shoulder to push against for strumming, shallow enough through the middle of the neck that barre chords and long sets do not wear your hand out. The Standard Taper keeps the string spacing tighter than Martin's wider High-Performance necks, which suits players coming across from electrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBone at both ends\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the nut and the saddle are bone — a compensated bone saddle on a 16\" radius, dropped into a modern belly bridge in East Indian rosewood. Bone transfers string energy into the guitar more efficiently than moulded synthetics and it wears well over years of restringing, so this is a detail worth having at any level. Tuning is handled by Ping nickel open-gear machines with black knobs, in keeping with the rest of the instrument's understated look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStrings, case and getting it to your door\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 00-15M leaves the factory strung with Martin Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Phosphor Bronze in Light gauge, which is the treated set Martin uses when it wants a string to keep its brightness for weeks rather than days. It ships in a Martin softshell case — an actual case, not a gig bag, with internal padding, a waterproof shell and backpack straps, which is exactly what you want for public transport, back seats and the walk from the car park to the venue.

Underneath the understated finish is a full 000 Auditorium body, solid mahogany right through, and the plainest, most useful Martin in the catalogue. This is the one that gets thrown in the car because you would rather play it than protect it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe 000 Auditorium body\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin lists the shape as 000-14 Fret — the Auditorium, joining the neck at the fourteenth fret. It is a size with real presence in the room without the low-end bulk of a dreadnought, so it sits well under a vocal and stays balanced whether you are fingerpicking or driving it with a pick. Do not confuse it with the smaller 00-15M in this same batch, or with the dreadnought D-15M StreetMaster: this is the mid-size 000.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA worn-in look that is actually a finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo be clear about what you are buying: the broken-in appearance comes from Martin's satin finish in Mahogany Burst, not from any distressing, relicing or ageing process. Nothing has been sanded back, dented or artificially aged — it is a deliberately low-sheen, darkly shaded finish over solid mahogany, and it simply reads as a guitar that has been played. The upside is entirely practical. A satin finish in a dark burst hides the scuffs and fingerprints that would show up glaringly on gloss, so the guitar stays looking right through the years when a shinier instrument would be looking sorry for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid mahogany and a mahogany top\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTop, back and sides are all solid mahogany. That mahogany top is the reason a StreetMaster does not sound like a spruce-topped Martin: it pushes the midrange forward, keeps the response drier and more focused, and puts a natural limit on how much shimmer piles up behind a chord. Words land more clearly over it, which is why so many singers end up with one. Bracing is a non-scalloped spruce X-brace at 5\/16\", and there is no binding anywhere — the woods meet directly, as they do across the whole 15 Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNeck and fingerboard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is select hardwood in Martin's Modified Low Oval profile with Standard Taper, a 25.4\" scale length and a 1 11\/16\" nut width. The East Indian rosewood fingerboard carries 20 frets and measures 2 1\/8\" across at the twelfth, with string spacing at the bridge also 2 1\/8\". It is a comfortable, mid-depth neck that does not fight you over a long set, and the Standard Taper keeps things familiar for players used to a standard Martin feel rather than the wider High-Performance necks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBone nut and saddle, aged nickel tuners\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNut and saddle are both bone, the saddle compensated on a 16\" radius and dropped into a modern belly bridge in East Indian rosewood. Bone is what you want at those two contact points: it passes string energy into the top cleanly and holds up to years of restringing without deforming. The Ping aged nickel tuners round out the look — dulled rather than bright, so nothing on the guitar flashes at the audience.

It is handcrafted in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, and it is built for the gig — the cutaway gets you up the neck, the plug gets you into the desk, and the rosewood gives you the depth and sparkle a mahogany guitar simply cannot.

Rosewood adds weight underneath the note and a glassy top end above it, while the spruce top gives you headroom to dig in without the sound collapsing. Bracing is a forward-shifted, scalloped spruce X-brace at 5\/16\", which lets the top move more freely than a non-scalloped pattern and opens up the bass response.

The point of a system like this is that it reports what the guitar is actually doing rather than imposing a generic amplified sound over the top of it — worth having on an instrument whose rosewood character is the reason you chose it. Practically, it means one instrument covers your acoustic set and your plugged-in set without a compromise in either direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHigh-Performance Taper neck and ebony board\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is select hardwood in the Modified Low Oval profile with Martin's High-Performance Taper, a 25.4\" scale length and a generous 1 3\/4\" nut width, narrowing to 2 1\/8\" across the fingerboard at the twelfth fret. That wide nut with a tapering board is a fingerstylist's dream: room to place your right hand cleanly at the nut end, and a familiar feel further up.

Most guitars this size put spruce on the front; using mahogany instead changes what comes off the strings in a way you hear on the first chord. It is a focused, midrange-forward, unusually articulate Auditorium, and it arrives in a hardshell case, Pleked and strung ready to play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid mahogany, top to back\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn all-mahogany top is the whole story here. Mahogany is stiffer and less overtone-rich than spruce, so notes come out drier and tighter, with the midrange pushed forward and far less shimmer ringing around the fundamental. Chords stay separated instead of blooming into each other, which is exactly why fingerstyle players and engineers keep reaching for all-mahogany guitars — they sit in a mix without needing a hand from an equaliser. Inside, GE-scalloped X bracing in 1\/4\" spruce keeps the top light enough to move under a soft touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe 000-14 fret Auditorium body\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 000 is the size a lot of players land on after years with a dreadnought. It is narrower at the waist and shallower against the ribs, so an hour on the couch does not turn into a wrestle, and the balance across the strings is even rather than bass-heavy. You trade a slice of raw low-end volume for control and clarity, and on a mahogany-topped guitar that trade lines up perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eShort 24.9\" scale, wide 1 3\/4\" nut\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 24.9\" scale length holds slightly less tension at pitch than a long-scale Martin, which softens the fight in barre chords and full-step bends and makes the guitar feel welcoming straight away. Sitting in front of that is a 1 3\/4\" bone nut with 2 5\/32\" spacing at the bridge, so there is genuine room between the strings for a thumb and three fingers to work independently. That combination — relaxed tension, generous spacing — is why this shape suits fingerstyle so well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNeck profile, ebony board and a dovetail joint\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is a GE Modified Low Oval carved with Martin's High-Performance Taper, a shape with enough depth to fill the hand while staying shallow enough for long chord passages. It is a select hardwood neck finished in Dark Mahogany to match the body, joined to it with a traditional glued dovetail rather than bolts. The fingerboard and bridge are ebony, the board measures 2 1\/8\" across at the twelfth fret, and there are twenty frets with the neck meeting the body at the fourteenth. Abalone GE Diamond and Square Short inlays mark the positions, and white side dots along the edge of the board keep you oriented on a dark stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBone at the nut, bone at the saddle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin fits a bone nut, a compensated bone saddle dropped into the ebony belly bridge, and bone bridge pins. Bone is harder and denser than moulded plastic, so it transfers string energy into the top with less loss and holds a filed slot cleanly over years of restrings.

Solid spruce over solid East Indian rosewood gives it depth and a long, singing sustain, while the added string tension keeps every note defined instead of letting them wash together. Style 28 appointments, a Pleked fingerboard and a moulded hardshell case round it out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid spruce over solid East Indian rosewood\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolid spruce responds fast and gets brighter and more open the longer you play it in. Solid East Indian rosewood behind it adds weight underneath the note and a glassy top end, plus the long decay that rosewood Martins are known for. Under the top sits GE-scalloped X bracing in 1\/4\" spruce, shaved so the guitar answers a light fingerstyle touch yet still holds together when you dig in with a pick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Orchestra Model shape matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn OM is a 000-sized body running the long 25.4\" scale, and the pairing does something neither spec manages alone. The small body keeps things balanced and comfortable — narrow waist, shallow depth, easy to hold for an hour — while the longer scale pulls the strings tighter at pitch, which firms up the bass, sharpens the attack and stops chords smearing. Next to a short-scale 000 the OM sounds more focused and hits harder; next to a dreadnought it is far quicker to respond and easier to control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA 1 3\/4\" nut with room to work\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bone nut measures 1 3\/4\" across, with 2 5\/32\" spacing at the bridge and a fingerboard 2 1\/8\" wide at the twelfth fret. That is real estate: enough gap between strings to plant a thumb and pick cleanly with three fingers, mute selectively, or work a travis pattern without clipping a neighbouring string. Combine that spacing with the extra tension of the long scale and you get the setup a lot of fingerstyle and crosspicking players consider ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNeck carve, ebony board and dovetail construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin uses its GE Modified Low Oval profile with the High-Performance Taper here — a low-shouldered carve that leaves enough wood to grip while keeping the palm relaxed through long stretches. The select hardwood neck is finished in Dark Mahogany and set into the body with a glued dovetail joint, still the most rigid way to attach a neck and the reason well-kept Martins from decades ago remain playable. The ebony fingerboard and ebony belly bridge are hard, tight-grained and slick under the fingers, and there are twenty frets with the neck joining at the fourteenth. Abalone long Diamonds and Squares inlays mark the way, with white side dots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStyle 28 appointments and the gloss finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStyle 28 detailing is restrained on purpose. Bold herringbone purfling frames the top, a Style 28 multi-stripe rosette circles the soundhole, and Style 28 back purfling with a black stripe runs down the centre seam. Antique white binding, heelcap and endpiece edge the body in a warm off-white, the headplate is East Indian rosewood carrying the Script Old Style logo, and the tuners are nickel open-gear with butterbean knobs. The top, back and sides are gloss with a satin neck, and the spruce top carries an aging toner that gives it a slightly warmed, broken-in look rather than raw white.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePleked frets and bone hardware\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar is Pleked before it ships: a machine measures the fingerboard and every fret under simulated string tension, then levels and dresses them to that reading. It is the same work a fine technician does by hand, held to tighter tolerances, and it means low action without buzz and accurate notes all the way up the neck straight out of the case. Backing that up is bone where it counts — bone nut, compensated bone saddle in a drop-in slot, bone bridge pins — which passes string energy into the top more efficiently than plastic and wears far better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMoulded hardshell case and Lifespan 2.0 strings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OM-28 travels in a Martin moulded hardshell case with a form-fitted plush interior, which is the right level of protection for a solid rosewood instrument coming through the freight network to your door.
