Establishing a new "standard" for acoustic guitars is the Martin Standard Series HD-28. This fresh model from one of acoustic guitar's most trusted names stakes its claim for a new standard of care, quality, and sound that any acoustic player can easily get inspired by.

With this Martin Standard Series model, we're treated to a legendary experience reimagined for the modern era. The HD-28, a classic of Martin acoustics, receives new life in the Standard Series. With an effortless shape and lush musicality, the Standard Series HD-28 strikes a masterful balance of quality and accessibility. This all begins with a Martin D-14 Fret body shaped from a spruce top and East Indian rosewood back and sides. Comfortable and commanding, the spruce top is fitted with GE "Golden Era" scalloped spruce braces in a forward-shifted X-bracing pattern. This HD-28 plays with a great balance of projection and precision through these materials and braces, summoning an overall authoritative Martin sound.

This all continues on with a select hardwood neck taking a GE Modified Low Oval profile with a High Performance neck taper. Satin-finished and primed for playing, this neck features a soft touch inviting lengthy playing sessions across its full scale. The neck of this HD-28 is joined by an ebony fingerboard bearing twenty frets. Diamonds and Squares Long abalone fret inlays punctuate the dark board for that added element of Martin authenticity. This Martin's neck and body come together through dovetail neck joint construction, making for a solid connection between the two parts and an overall resonant and fluid musical experience.

Alongside these construction specifications, the Martin Standard Series HD-28 lines up a suite of closer considerations and features to really make the whole of the instrument shine. For one, we have on this guitar a wonderful lineup of hardware specifications. This Martin Standard Series model comes equipped with a bone nut and compensated bone saddle to ground strings stably, ensure a fluid playing experience, and pair with the model's Nickel Open Gear tuning machines for easy stringing. Totally, this Standard Series plays with the precision and ease you've come to expect from Martin acoustic guitars.

This whole experience wraps up with a number of further considerations for visuals. The model's top spruce wood features Martin's Aging Toner color and a gloss finish, making for an eye-catching model even at a distance. Alongside this coloring, the top is inlaid with a Bold Herringbone inlay and Antique White binding, accentuating the curvature of the body, these two considerations accompany a Style 28 Multi-Stripe rosette and a Zig-Zag purfling pattern with a black stripe back stripe along the East Indian rosewood back wood. This guitar travels with an included Martin ply hardshell case for safety and security.

Martin makes an excellent case for their Standard Series with this HD-28 Standard Series model. Matching generational Martin sound with modern considerations for playability and style, this Standard Series is a Martin classic as you've always known.
