Martin / 00028 Brazilian Rosewood Sitka Spruce / 1947 / Guitar

Sometimes writing advertising copy for a guitar takes a little more effort than usual, and with this fantastic Martin 00028 from 1947 there was a very good reason for that; the guitar was impossible to keep out of the hands of our Fellows! The beautiful wood, the great condition, but especially the beautiful full, warm and balanced sound of the guitar made everyone want to show their best guitar skills on this Martin! Because this 00028 is still incredibly beautiful after 77 years! The guitar has perhaps one of the most beautiful Sitka spruce tops we have ever seen, with the beautiful tight and straight grain immediately noticeable. The combination with the Brazilian rosewood of the back and sides is an absolute classic, and this type of wood also shows a beautiful straight pattern. Enthusiasts will undoubtedly salivate at the sight of this unprecedentedly beautiful combination! The first Martins in 28 style appeared in the 1870s, but it was not until 1934 that Martin introduced the 00028 in the form in which we still know the model today. The guitar was equipped with a shorter scale than its predecessor OM, but otherwise had many of the same specifications. When you play this guitar you will immediately notice the sturdy V-profile of the neck. This shape makes the neck fit perfectly in the hand, making playing this 00028 a very pleasant experience. This Martin 00028 has clearly been well cared for over the years, because as mentioned before, it is almost unbelievable how beautiful the guitar looks. The lacquer has accumulated a subtle weather checking over the years, which gives the guitar an unprecedented vintage charm. There are also playwear marks near the pickguard and on the back of the neck, but these are entirely as expected from respectful use over several decades. The guitar has also undergone some minor repairs. The guitar has undergone a neck reset, the bridge saddle and endpin have been replaced, and a strap button has been placed on the heel. A partial refret has also been performed, but the guitar is otherwise original and free of cracks. This Martin 00028 is an incredibly beautiful guitar, and plays and sounds like a dream!

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
