Description

When this 000-28 was made, it was the highest end non-dreadnaught one could buy. This example was well-played over the years and remains in great structural condition. Often touted as the most versatile guitar model, the 000-28 also has some of the more beautiful appointments. The Sitka Spruce/Brazilian Rosewood/Ebony/Mahogany combo are adorned with white/black binding. It is certainly one of the best guitars one could get in 1948 and now it still holds its own today.
