Full Description
View Full DescriptionGolden era scalloped bracing for vintage tone
The Martin HD-28 Refreshed features Golden Era scalloped bracing, designed to replicate the tonal richness of Martin guitars from the late 1920s to early 1940s. This bracing pattern allows the solid spruce top to vibrate more freely, resulting in a powerful, dynamic sound with enhanced sustain and resonance. The forward-shifted design delivers a bold, responsive tone that captures the essence of vintage acoustic guitars while providing modern reliability and consistency.
Premium tonewoods for rich, balanced sound
Crafted with East Indian rosewood back and sides and a solid spruce top, the HD-28 Refreshed produces a warm, full-bodied tone with exceptional clarity. The rosewood contributes deep, rich lows and sparkling highs, while the spruce top ensures brightness and projection. This carefully selected tonewood combination creates a balanced sound that suits a variety of playing styles, from delicate fingerpicking to powerful strumming.
Elegant herringbone inlay for timeless style
The HD-28 Refreshed showcases traditional herringbone inlays along the top binding, paying homage to classic Martin designs. This intricate detailing not only enhances the guitar's visual appeal but also highlights the meticulous craftsmanship that Martin is renowned for. Combined with the aging toner finish and antique white binding, the herringbone inlay adds a sophisticated vintage aesthetic that stands out on any stage or in any collection.
Bone bridge pins for improved sustain and clarity
Equipped with high-quality bone bridge pins, the HD-28 Refreshed offers superior tonal performance. Bone is a dense, natural material that enhances the transfer of vibrations from the strings to the soundboard, resulting in increased sustain and improved tonal clarity. This small yet significant detail contributes to a more resonant and articulate sound, giving you a responsive and dynamic playing experience.
