Northwest Vintage Guitars presents a rare Martin HD28E Retro with the Fishman F1 Aura pickup and preamp system. It's an amazing onboard pickup and preamp system that's not only a Mic, it's a tone shaper with the ability to use just the pickup, or a blend of the pickup and a combination of 3 different vintage tones and mics. Really a game changer. Not a cookie cutter mic. The Retro designation refers to the vintage appointments in the modern package. You get the solid Sitka top and the Solid Indian Rosewood Backs and Sides along with the classic Martin Silkscreen logo and open back tuners. You also get the forward shifted scalloped braces and the Ebony bridge and fretboard. It's the complete package for someone looking for traditional appointments with modern capabilities. And it comes in the original Martin Hard Case.
The nut measures 1.75", neck depth is .87"-.92 at the 1st and 10th frets respectively. It's a Martin D carve that traditionalists will love. 25.4" scale, 12" radius, 4.88 lbs. Freshly strung and accurately intonated with D'Adarrio Bronze 12-53 roundwound strings. The neck is straight, the truss rod turns in both directions, and the relief is currently set for optimum playability. The back binding has been replaced by our luthier so you don't have to worry about that pesky Martin binding problem. It remains in excellent playable condition with no dead spots or unwarranted buzzing.
