The D28 has an Ebony fingerboard, solid Spruce top, solid Indian Rosewood back (2-piece) and sides, white binding, and a black and white rosette. Other features include M6 chrome tuning gears, a gloss finish, and a Martin hardshell case. Professional musicians choose the gorgeous D28 for its powerful resonance and volume. The large dreadnought body produces a strong bass response without disturbing the clarity of the treble strings.
