Martin D-28 StreetLegend Overview

The Martin D-28 Street Legend is a sight to behold. And it's nothing short of a dream to play. With East Indian rosewood back and sides, it boasts a deeply resonant tone, which will fill any room you play it in. Expect wide, permeating lows and crystal-clear highs, with a smooth midrange. The road-worn aesthetic has been purposefully added to give this guitar a 'played-in' look and feel, whilst a smooth, satin-finished mahogany neck and ebony fretboard provide luscious playability. They also add a nicely balanced voicing, whilst producing excellent sustain - let those chords ring out forevermore!

This beauty has been made and set up in Martin's illustrious USA factory. This means the finer details, like string action, fret edges, and overall playability have been refined to perfection - it'll be a playing experience like no other. Suited to any style, this is the virtuoso's dream, with a high performance neck taper and forward shifted scalloped X bracing for superb projection and full-bodied notes.

The played-in look

There's something charming and personal about a guitar that has been taken on the road and has the marks to prove it. The road-worn look is inimitable, and this D-28 gives you this sought-after aesthetic straight out of the box. Visual wear has been carefully applied by luthiers to bring you an accurate and authentic look. But fear not, there's no actual damage to this guitar, and that's the beauty of it! It's up to you to keep playing it in and add your own loving dints and wear over the years.

Luscious rosewood back and sides

The back and sides of this Street Legend are made from east Indian rosewood - they beam with quality. As you strum through chords and pick your notes, you'll find they sing with resonance and fullness. The low end is broad, whilst the highs have a sparkling crispness. This is complemented by the spruce top, which offers a pronounced projection, helping to fill any room with your music.

Forward-shifted scalloped X bracing provides superbly strong support, helping to boost the resonance and strength of the D-28. With these tones at your fingertips, you'll find it hard to put this guitar down.

Professional playability

With a satin-finished mahogany neck in your hands, fret transitions will feel extra fluid and free. You'll be able to seamlessly piece together more complex chords and lead licks without feeling any friction behind your thumb.

Tonally, the mahogany complements the warmth of the rosewood back and sides, but the ebony fretboard has a much brighter sound to add some emphasis to your midrange. The result? A stunningly dynamic sound which excels across the entire frequency spectrum. And you'll be astonished by the luscious sustain to boot.

Premium hardshell case included

The world class hardshell case will keep this D-28 Street Legend safe forevermore. Featuring a strong, durable design and a beautiful aesthetic, it's the perfect tool for taking your Martin to and from gigs and rehearsals. After all, what serious musician wouldn't want to keep their most prized possession safe?
