Martin D-28 1970s

Über Martin D-28 1970s

The 1970s D-28 has a solid Sitka spruce top, East Indian rosewood back and sides, a mahogany neck and an ebony fingerboard and bridge, on a 14-fret body with a 25.4 inch scale and a 1 11/16 inch nut. Brazilian rosewood was used up to 1969; from 1970 the back and sides are East Indian. The top has non-scalloped X bracing over a rosewood bridge plate, and the neck holds a non-adjustable square rod rather than an adjustable truss rod. The original tuners are sealed-back chrome Grover Rotomatics, marked patent pending on 1970 to 1972 guitars. Serials run about 268,000 to 291,000 on 1970 and 1971 guitars and 403,000 to 418,000 on 1978 and 1979 ones. Natural is the usual finish; sunburst and shaded tops are rare.

Necks are mostly a soft V, some a fuller C, about 0.83 to 0.88 inch deep at the first fret and 0.98 at the ninth. Weighed examples come in at about 4.3 to 5.1 lb (1.9 to 2.3 kg). The original case is either a blue hard case or a black molded Martin case.

Many have had a neck reset; check the neck angle and how much saddle height is left. Bridges crack or lift and are often reglued or replaced, and the bridge plate is sometimes swapped for maple or covered with a repair plate. Original pickguards curl, so many are replaced; look for the common crack along the pickguard edge by the B string. Refrets, new bone nuts and saddles, strap buttons at the heel and added pickups are common.
