A 1967 Martin 000-28 in Natural finish.
Martin 000-size guitars have become go-to guitars for fingerpickers and strummers alike. More comfortable to play than Dreadnaught-size guitars but big enough to provide excellent projection and tone. This particular guitar has Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, so it sounds and looks wonderful. Check out the photos.
The guitar bears autographs from Vince Gill, Kenny Loggins, Jim Messina, Sean Watkins, and Chris Thiele. As is often the case with guitars autographed at concert performances, there is no written provenance to authenticate the signatures, so the guitar is priced without premium relating to the signatures.
Regardless, this Brazilian Rosewood 000-28 is a fine guitar which sounds just as you'd expect. The action is somewhat high and depending upon your personal playing preferences, you might consider a neck reset at some point. If you're interested in purchasing this vintage Martin, please call us at the shop and we'll be happy to provide a complete in-hand description and answer any questions you may have.
