Talking FS Martin Jumbo Herringbone HJ-28 Rare

Martin Jumbo Herringbone. Not many of these were made, and it is an outstanding guitar. A Martin Jumbo size, like the J40, but with the scalloped bracing, in the era of the HD-28 and the D-45. Small waist size lets the guitar sit in lap similar to an OM size. Built 2002. Woods are solid spruce and solid East Indian Rosewood with Herringbone trim. Ebony fretboard and bridge.
Huge sound. Like all the scalloped braces guitars, very balanced throughout the strings. Very good condition for its age. I will post pictures when I learn how, but it looks just like this:

Price $ plus $50 shipping in CONUS

Upper bout 11 5/8"
Waist 9 3/4" (this sits like an OM in the lap)
Lower bout 16"

Nut width 1 11/16"
String spacing at saddle 2 1/8"

Pictured next top an OM size to show shape (Collings OM)

Default Rare Martin Jumbo HJ-28

Bump for a little known but awesome Martin. Played one of these several years ago that was in rough shape but had a monster tone.

Thanks Ron. This is one of the best guitars made by Martin IMHO. Perfect pal to go with you HD-28 or other dread.
