Description:
The Martin OM-28 is one of the most appreciated models in the Martin series, chosen by many guitarists for its balanced sound and versatility. With a rich and dynamic tone, the OM-28 delivers deep bass, bright treble, and an exceptional tonal range.
Characterized by a 25.4" scale length, the OM-28 features a solid Sitka spruce top, while the back and sides are made of solid Indian rosewood.
Its OM shape makes it particularly well-suited for fingerpicking, but it performs equally well for strumming. This model is perfect for those seeking a versatile guitar, with high sound quality and a responsive touch.
Specifically, this guitar belongs to the Standard Series 2025, which has further refined the already exceptional Standard Series Reimagined models to offer even higher performance, both in terms of sound and comfort.
A significant innovation is the adoption of the Golden Era bracing, previously reserved exclusively for Custom Shop productions, as well as the Modern Deluxe and Authentic series. This technical choice gives the instruments an even fuller and richer sound while maintaining the clarity typical of Martin guitars.
Another improvement concerns the neck, which now features the Golden Era Modified “Low Oval” profile, thinner at the first frets for a more comfortable grip, but progressively thicker as you move up the fretboard, thus enhancing overall ergonomics. The fingerboard is slightly thinner, mirroring the design of the historic Martin Pre-War models, and features beveled edges for greater comfort in handling.
The bridge has also been redesigned and now adopts the Golden Era Modern Belly design, echoing the bridges of Martin's Pre-War productions.
Overall, the Martin Standard Series 2025 aligns even more closely with the traditional construction standards of the brand, offering instruments with authentic character and improved playability.
