From the moment your fingers trace its 1935 Sunburst spruce top to the last resonant fade of a strummed chord, the Martin HD-28 Standard Series captures the heart of American acoustic tradition. Handcrafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and rich East Indian rosewood back and sides, this dreadnought speaks with bold projection and a beautifully balanced voice that responds to every nuance of your touch. The classic forward-shifted scalloped X-brace pattern and refined golden era bracing give the HD-28 a tone that’s both powerful and inviting, perfect for everything from fingerpicking to full-bodied rhythm playing.

Playability is equally at home beside the technical polish. The satin-finished neck features Martin’s GE Modified Low Oval profile and a high-performance taper that encourages comfortable fretting across all positions. Paired with an ebony fingerboard adorned with abalone diamond and square inlays, each note rings true with clarity and definition, while the 25.4" scale length and 1 3/4" nut width strike that perfect balance between tension and ease. Decorative touches such as the bold herringbone top inlay, antique white binding, and nickel open-gear tuners with butterbean knobs give the guitar a vintage-inspired aesthetic that’s timeless yet unmistakably modern.

More than just a sum of its parts, the HD-28 delivers a soulful performance instrument that feels as good as it sounds. Whether you’re crafting songs in a living room, commanding the stage, or adding to a serious guitar collection, this model stands as a testament to Martin’s legacy of craftsmanship and tonal excellence. Each guitar ships complete with a molded hardshell case, giving you rugged protection for the road or studio.

The Martin HD-28 Standard Series Acoustic Guitar in 1935 Sunburst is available now at Haggerty’s Music — your destination for instruments that inspire and endure. Experience the blend of heritage, playability, and expressive tone that only a Martin can deliver.
