From Hank Williams to Elvis Presley to Jimmy Page—aside from all being legendary artists who've each had a massive impact on popular music, these three musicians also have another thing in common: they've all made a name for themselves with Martin D-28 guitars. In fact, the King even used a Martin D-28 Dreadnought during his last concert ever in 1977. With its solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, mahogany neck and Sitka spruce top, the D-28 represents the pinnacle of Martin's master luthiery.
From Custom and Standard Series dreadnoughts to even models for left-handers, the Martin D-28 for you is waiting in this section. Any one of the models just mentioned would be an excellent place to start your search, but for the sake of getting this party started, we'll suggest the Standard Series D-28 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar. Boasting the rich, resonant warm sound and punchy volume you'd expect from the be-all and end-all of dreadnoughts, the Standard Series is fitting for a wide array of genres, and its classic sunburst finish perfectly complements its demanding power.
Now, if you want an acoustic guitar that's as close as you can get to the Golden Era D-28 without having to take out a second mortgage, you owe it to yourself to check out the Marquis D-28 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar. Evoking the same incredible tone and projection as the pre-WWII model, the Marquis D-28 only differs by using the less scarce—and thus more affordable—Indian rosewood instead of Brazilian rosewood. From the solid Adirondack spruce top and forward-shifted X-bracing to the slot-through saddle and herringbone binding, this guitar will stun onlookers as much as it will satisfy your discerning tastes. When Martin debuted the D-28 in 1931, it certainly strengthened the company's strong reputation as one of the greatest stringed instrument manufacturers ever. Whatever you go with in this catalog, you'll realize quickly why pro guitarists around the globe continuously name it their all-time favorite Martin.
