As usual, I totally agree with Rich on this one. 16's have a brighter, less complex, more modern tone. They just dont capture that full, rich, chiming Martin tone to the fullest. Don't get me wrong, the do sound like a Martin, and they sound good. The 28 will have everything that the 16 has and more. Alot more.
For the $, I would always go with a used 28 rather than a new 16.
