The Martin HD12-28 is a trusted choice for players seeking the lush, layered sounds that only a 12-string guitar can deliver. Beloved by generations of players for its ability to add depth and vibrant tonal layers, its Dreadnought body size produces a bold, projective tone with strong bass, clear trebles, and rich overtones, perfectly complemented by the chime and texture of the extra octave strings. Handcrafted with a solid spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, the HD12-28 offers a resonant voice that’s balanced for all playing styles, whether you’re fingerpicking or strumming.
The satin neck, featuring a Golden Era (GE) Modified Low Oval profile, high-performance taper, and shorter 24.9" scale length, ensures smooth, comfortable playability. Complete with antique white binding, bold herringbone inlay on top, an ebony fingerboard adorned with abalone diamond and square inlays, and chrome enclosed gear tuners, the HD12-28 is a guitar you can trust to unleash the artist within.
For the first time since 2018, Standard Series guitars are being slightly tweaked with a nice mix of modern and vintage-inspired features including Golden Era top bracing - which is a big improvement in overall volume and projection with nice vintage tones, there's a thinner fretboard much like older Martin guitars with a gently beveled edge for improved comfort. We have a Golden Era modern belly bridge with bone or ebony bridge pins and an improved nut on angle transition from the fretboard to headstock. Cosmetically we're seeing a Long Diamond neck transition and a sleeker vintage-style neck heel! Make this excellent Martin dreadnought yours today at The Music Zoo!
