A great example of an early ’50s Martin D-28 that’s been played a lot over the years, and is in great playing shape for many more to come. This one comes to us from the period when Martin was still using Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, by the 1950s they were using Sitka Spruce tops. There are some repairs, see our specs tabs for more details, but our repair staff have gone over this instrument from tuners to tail to confirm a clean bill of health. 1951 is a good year with this beauty in your hands.

Wide awake with lots of boom chuck, plus great Brazilian Rosewood on this 1951. 
This one's been lived in and played through, with lots of road left to go. I love visiting with this '51 vintage, it's got the mature and opened up voice of a guitar that's gone the rounds and is singing strong. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
