Inspired by Mr. Strings' 1940 D-28, this guitar combines modern features with a classic pre-war design. The unique 25" scale length reduces string tension for faster playing and expressive bends, making you that much closing to playing like Billy (practice hours not included). With a custom nut width that’s slightly wider than his pre-war Martin and a modified low oval satin neck, it offers enhanced comfort and speed, ideal for players who crave agility up and down the neck. The East Indian rosewood back and sides deliver ample amounts of resonance and rich bass, plus a herringbone trim, antique toner and antique white binding for added vintage flair. Nickel enclosed gear tuners, exclusive to Martin, and an ebony fingerboard with abalone diamond and square inlay round out the guitar’s looks and performance. It’s an ideal balance of traditional craftsmanship and modern playability, much like Billy’s genre-defying style.
