The Story

OM-28 Authentic 1931 Orchestra Acoustic Guitar Natural

As close as you can get to an original, this is the Martin OM-28 Authentic 1931 model, a 14-fret Orchestra built with all the accoutrements of a vintage Martin, such as the zig-zag back purfling, grained Ivoroid binding, and the short pattern golden era inlays. Beautiful solid pieces of Adirondack Spruce and Madagascar Rosewood as used in the body construction. This OM-28 not only appears like an original, but tonally sounds just like one too โ€“ thanks to the new Martin Vintage Tone System, which uses a special process that ages the wood and give the guitar that played-in vintage sound.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case
