I am so glad I bought this guitar. Thank you zZounds for the easy terms. Much appreciated. Martin doesn't exactly give this model away.I have played Martin guitars most of my life.A few years back when hard times had befallen me I had to sell my genuine '60's protest D-35. I had that guitar for 50 years. Ugh!! Mourning and grief!!Times have changed I am now the proud owner of the OM-28 Modern Deluxe. The guitar is everything Martin claims it to be and more. I'm so glad I bought it.On my music stand I have pieces by Andrew York, Merlin, Brouwer and O'Carolin, ( this week).I play this instrument in altered tunings with finger picks, in standard tunings with flat pick and finger picks, I play classical pieces, contemporary pieces, Celtic pieces and improvisational Blues/Jazz. It sounds great no matter what genre.It holds great psychic value as well.I haven't had a reason to contact Martin regarding this instrument or other Martin guitars I have owned. I imagine their support to be quite excellent given the various ways one can stay involved with the company.
