This beautiful 000-28 Modern Deluxe embodies the rich classic sound of authentic East Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce, bound in bold herringbone with vintage appointments. The resonant scalloped bracing allows natural harmonics and woody tone to bloom with every note. 

The 000 acoustic body style is known for a great balance between bass and treble without the excessive bass overtones or woofiness you can sometimes get from larger body styles. They are also known as great live performance guitars that don't feed back where other larger body styles sometimes do. Many Martin players prefer a 000-28 to the company’s D series guitars for this reason. 

This 000-28 was bought new by its one owner this year and has hardly been out of its case. The only sign of this being played at all is some very faint pick swirls on the guard. Not a mark or blemish anywhere to be seen. For all intents, this guitar is in as new, mint condition.

Comes in its original Martin hard case in new condition.
