DISC Martin OM-28, Natural

Full Description

Quality Construction

The Martin OM-28 features a solid sitka spruce top, well regarded for its sweet, smooth and 'all-round' tone with great projection and volume, combined with rosewood back and sides, that provide warmth with complex harmonic overtones. This mix of spruce and rosewood makes the OM-28 a balanced instrument with a versatile tone palette.

Other quality features that set the Martin OM-28 apart include: HD zig-zag purfling with grained ivoroid binding, 1930s style belly bridge in solid black ebony with a compensated, white tusq saddle, nickel open-geared tuners, a Delmar tortoise pickguard and a high-grade polished gloss finish with aging toner on top.

Strong, Stable Neck

The hardwood neck of the OM-28 is crafted with a modified low oval profile and a performing artist taper providing comfort and ease of playability from a 25.4" scale length. A solid black ebony fingerboard with 20 frets and diamond and square inlays, leads to a square taper headstock complete with nickle open-geared tuning machines.
