For Sale: 2014 Martin OM-28

[JayRobIBZ]

I am offering my 2014 (Serial number actually indicated 2013) OM-28 which I purchased new from Sweetwater. It is a fantastic guitar. When I took it out of the case and played the first few chords my wife and I looked at each other knowingly and I said "THAT is what I was looking for with all those other guitars." It is loud and clear and articulate. It is a fingerpicker's dream, if I am allowed to use a bit of cliché.

I am only selling because electric has moved back in front for me and we need to put together some funding for a project. I have multiple guitars for sale, and it won't disappoint me one bit if this one goes unsold. Having said that, I am offering it at $1950, buyer pays shipping. We can talk about the payment method, but if you want to use paypal then the buyer will pay the fees unless otherwise negotiated.

I have kept this guitar very clean, but somehow it has ended up with some very light impressions on the front. I think I have captured most if not all of them in the photographs. They can only be seen in the reflection. There is also a very slight impression on the back of the neck that you can barely notice if you are looking for it.

I am not a smoker and the guitar has never left my home. I have kept humid packs in the case since the day I took it out of the shipping box, but we have perfect humidity here in my part of Washington, anyway, so feel confident that the guitar is perfectly hydrated.

Feel free to PM me about any question.

I recently bought a used OM 28 from another forum member and had the same reaction. They are tremendous guitars and this one is at a great price!

Best of luck for the seller and the fortunate purchaser of this guitar!

Including specs would be a good idea here. Martin has changed their specs on the OM-28 vs OM-28V considerably in the last few years, and are no longer providing them on their web site for the older models.
