This Martin Custom Shop 00028 12 Fret is a beautiful handmade instrument. The scalloped X bracing provides a rich and dynamic sound, with clear highs and a full low-end. The finish with aging toner and see-through pickguard emphasizes the refined wood grain and luxurious appearance of the guitar. Naturally, the diamonds and long squares fingerboard inlays are also included. The headstock features beautiful square slots. The original Grover tuning machines, found in the case, have been replaced with Schaller Grand Tuners. The nut pins have been replaced with ebony pins. The original white pins can also be found in the case.

The guitar shows some signs of wear on the top and neck. Otherwise, it is visibly well-maintained.
