For Sale: 2018 Martin HD-28 Custom Adi

[martingitdave]

Sold pending payment.

I am selling my Martin HD-28 Custom Shop with Adi top. I had tried to get used to the MLO neck. But, ultimately, I just prefer the modified V or low profile necks. The specs of this guitar are exactly the same as the Re-imagined HD-28, but with the substitution of an Adirondack top. It makes this guitar LOUD. I purchased this late last year from CME. They had a few of them, and this was the best of the bunch, in my humble opinion. I installed a strap button and K&K, so you don't have to. :-)

The guitar has very light play wear. No dings or dents. Just the usual light pick scratches.

Price is $ shipped in the US. Non-smoking, humidified house.

That’s a beauty! VG price.!! I agree with you about the MLO neck. Very comfortable profile. but for me the mod V fits nicely.

Agreed! It’s a very nice guitar with power and Martin rumble. Adirondack is not as scooped as Sitka tops. So you get some extra punch. The MLO is a comfortable neck design. My other guitar is a D-28 Marquis with modified V. I thought my playing might benefit from the skinner MLO neck, so I purchased this guitar. Truthfully, I don’t need two D-28s that sound so similar. And, in the end, I preferred the Marquis neck.
