The Dreadnought by Which All Others Are Judged Just Got Better!

At Martin Guitars handcrafted instruments built with superior tonewoods and innovative designs represent the high standard for which they are revered. This left handed Martin D-28 1935 Sunburst acoustic guitar has served as the main acoustic guitar of many musical legends including Jimmy Page and Hank Williams, and has been 'lovingly and artfully enhanced' to deliver the same vintage look and tone with a more modern feel and a higher level of playability.

Featuring all of the classic D-28 appointments that you'd expect, including Sitka Spruce top with a beautiful 1935 Sunburst finish, East Indian Rosewood back and sides, and non-scalloped forward-shifted X-bracing which allows the top to vibrate more freely, the new left handed Martin D-28 delivers the same harmonically complex tone with massive bass response balanced with articulate highs.

Another key to the lefty Martin D-28's enhanced sound and feel is its neck construction. Built with a classic dovetail neck joint, the new southpaw D-28 features a modified low oval neck shape with a high performance taper and a 20 fret Ebony fingerboard with mother-of-pearl inlays which has a solid yet silky feel that is extremely comfortable and easy to play.

Other premium appointments include a compensated bone saddle with an ebony bridge, an all bone nut and nickel open gear tuners with Butterbean knobs for enhanced tuning stability and rock solid intonation.
