Empire Music Owner Joe Ravita has hand-selected these specific wood sets and designed the instrument in conjunction with Martin Custom Shop Master Designer Jimmie Kleintop. The goal was to offer the finest sonic experience Martin has to offer with the highest quality wood sets on Earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur team went directly to the Martin Custom Shop and hand-selected each set of Guatemalan Rosewood for these builds. To ensure the guitars reached the highest quality levels, Joe went back to the Custom Shop weeks later and hand-selected each neck, front and rear block. Hundreds of parts were inspected, weighed and sorted to find the finest examples of each component.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGuatemalan Rosewood is one of the most desired tonewoods in the world for guitarists and guitar makers. The booming tones of Guatemalan Rosewood are unmistakable. Slightly lighter and less dense than Honduran Rosewood, Guatemalan Rosewood offers huge bottom-end and incredible sustain. The top-end has chime with plenty of body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, we chose scalloped Golden Era Bracing, so players will immediately notice the power, tone and responsiveness of the classic scalloped x-brace design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayers demanding a premium classic Martin Dreadnought tone will find this Custom Shop D-28 a world-class option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eSerial #: 3044307\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eTop Material: Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides Material: Guatemalan Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eFingerboard Material: Black Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eBinding Material: Antique White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eBracing: Golden Era, Spruce, Scalloped, 5\/16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eBridge Pins: Bone w\/ Faux Tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eBridge Material: Black Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eBridge Style: Golden Era Modern Belly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eAdhesive: Modern Adhesive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eElectronics: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eFingerboard Inlay: Style 28 Mother of Pearl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eNut Width: 1 3\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eFinish Package: Gloss Body w\/ Satin Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eHeadplate Decal: Old Style Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eNeck Profile: Golden Era Modified Low Oval\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eNeck Taper: High Performance Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eRosette Style: Style 28 Boltaron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eScale Length: 25.4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eTop Color: Aging Toner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe are proud to include a full professional setup to factory spec before delivering your new Martin Guitar.
