Description
Limited edition and stunning Martin 000-28I Custom built to the specs of the Italian Martin dealers including Koa, Cherry, Premium Sitka, VTS, Bellaza Nero sound hole inlay. This is a tributo to Martin and the age old bond between two contries that have had a deep impact on C.F. Martin since the first acoustic guitar as we know it today was build in Italy by Gaetano Vinacci.
This Martin 000-28I Custom shows what the custom shop luthiers can do. If you ever want your dream guitar built by them let me know. We’ll get it done. Today the attention goes to this wonderful Triple O! Awesome tonewood like Hawaiian Koa, European Cherry and Premium Sitka Spruce from the USA is combined in a match made in heaven. A warm fundamental tone comes to live when touched with the fingers and power is added when a pick is used. The modified low oval neck combined with the low action make her easy to play. And the premium Sitka top adds the the overtones, the sparkles, the sweet growl in the mid-range and bass notes. Awesome!
This is #18 of 33 of the 28I’s that were build but its a mystery why there are 33. Let my know if you have additional info. the 500 Lira coin inlay is also pretty unique. The owner has played the guitar but taken very good care of her. Thus she only shows some minor playmarks and had a small repair on the binding. Action is low and playability is awesome.
