2005 D-28 Marquis

A popular model reproducing the vintage D-28, which was regrettably discontinued.

Martin / 2005 D-28 Marquis

The "D-28 Marquis" was introduced in 2004, following in the footsteps of the HD-28 and Golden Era.
The "D-28 Marquis" is a detailed rendition of a vintage D-28 from the 1930s, and is an attractive model that is well worth owning for a lifetime, even for acoustic guitar enthusiasts who yearn for the original.

Ford-shifted scalloped X-bracing, butterbean open-back tuners, and cell binding with ivoroid are very vintage-like and irresistible.

The specification is from 1934 to late 1934, when the 14th fret joint began to be used.
One of the most impressive D-28 players of the same era for me is Tony Rice. He used a 1935 D-28 as his favorite machine, and it is famous that he got it from Clarence White.
The serial number "58957" is also applied to the title of the album.
The D-28 is a pre-war style D-28, and it is a great instrument for playing all over the fretboard.

The history of the D-28 itself proves that it is expected to play an active role in a wide range of music scenes, not only in bluegrass, but also in rock, folk, and pop music.

The pre-war style is the first page in the history of the D-28.
If you have been hesitant to purchase a D-28, this is a unique opportunity for you to do so.

The torque of the pegs is tight, but there are no tuning problems.
