This 1977 Martin HD-28 features a classic herringbone dreadnought build with a natural finish that has settled nicely over time. The rosewood back and sides show attractive grain, paired with a spruce top that has opened up with age and use. These guitars are standout pieces from most 70s Martins as they feature scalloped bracing and a smaller maple bridge plate. It has received a neck reset and refret, along with a bridge reglue, making it structurally sound and ready for continued use. Additional work includes a rosewood bridge plate cap, a repaired B-string crack, replacement tuners, and a strap button installation.

It remains in very good condition for its age, with expected player wear, a few dings, and some buckle rash present. The overall presentation reflects a guitar that has been maintained and played, with the necessary work addressed to keep it in reliable shape.

Includes original black Martin hard shell case.
