I myself just took the plunge on a D-28 just only 7 weeks ago.
Like you, I too was worried that I didn't feel worthy of such a great guitar. If I had known how much it would inspire me to play by simply wanting to hear it's beautiful voice, I would never have questioned the purchase. Now, 7 weeks later I have played SO much and my play has improved significantly.
This has only had a crazy snowball effect where 2 things are happening: 1) Since I've improved I can make the guitar make even more beautiful sounds and 2) The guitar itself is sounding absolutely better by playing it so much for the past 7 weeks. Both these things make me want to play it more and more and more...
I simply cannot put the thing down. Get the D-28, you will not regret it.
If you're worried about picking a "bad" one, just simply play a few of them. Your ear will guide you better than we can. In my experience it's rare to find a bad D-28. Most are good, some are VERY good.
