2014 Martin 000-28K 1921 Authentic Natural Koa, Mint, Original Hard, $4,899.00
This guitar is an exacting reproduction of a very special 1921 guitar housed in Martin's museum. It is a 12-fret, 000-size model with the top, back and sides made of highly figured Koa. Hide glue construction, with scalloped 1/4" Adirondack bracing ensures that the construction of this guitar is true to the original. The neck is authentically built as well. It is solid without a truss rod and it is wide, 1 7/8" at the nut increasing to 2 3/8" at the 12th fret. It is relatively shallow, however, with a very soft V, making it seem more like a 1 3/4" wide neck. I enjoy Koa-bodied guitars because of the rather unique harmonics which they produce and this guitar does not dissappoint. For me and this guitar, it was love at first play! It is lively and responsive right out of the box and very loud for it's Auditorium size. The geometry of the 12-fret design, the gorgeous Koa tone wood and the exquisite construction of this guitar make for one of the finest small-bodied instruments that I've had the pleasure to play. This guitar is new and except for my brief testing has not been played. I can't offer a manufacturer's warrangty, but otherwise this guitar is as it came from the Martin factory and you can save a cool $ grand. Comes with it's original Harptone case and accessories. I believe this guitar is destined to be one of Martin's most highly sought-after models. I love it and you will too!
