2009 Martin Vintage Series 00-28VS Acoustic Guitar w/ Case
With 12 frets free of the body and a full 1 7/8" nut width, this Martin is ideally engineered for fingerpicking, retaining great clarity and string-to-string balance. Extremely articulate and dynamically responsive, the guitar offers a distinct dryness and immediate note attack. The bass register has a powerful percussive cut, with sweet bloom as notes sustain, while the treble strings are sparkling and crisp. Weighing 3lbs 15oz, this 00-28VS has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 12-53 bronze strings and easy-playing action.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Spanish Cedar (Select Hardwood)
-Shape: Modified V, measuring .860” 1st fret, .995” 9th fret
-Fretboard: Ebony, abalone notched diamonds and squares inlays
-Frets: Slender, faint wear beneath the plain strings on 1-3
-Scale Length: 24.9”

-Bridge: Ebony pyramid, drop-in long bone saddle
-Pickguard: Tortoise teardrop (aftermarket)

There is a clean, tight crack repair on top to the treble side of the center seam, professionally cleated and difficult to spot. Cosmetic wear on the gloss lacquer finish is otherwise limited to a bit of shallow buckle wear at the waist and a few small nicks on top at the lower bout. The neck profile is smooth and clean.
The original hardshell case is included.
