Martin's OM-28 delivers vintage-inspired tone and sustain with its Golden Era X-bracing, while an updated Golden Era neck profile, a thinner fingerboard and a redesigned bridge and heel take playability to a new level. Solid East Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce produce a well-balanced sound, from a robust bass to bell-like trebles, and the ebony fingerboard adds elegance and a comfortable playing feel. The GE Modified Low Oval neck profile enhances playing comfort, and a glued dovetail joint ensures maximum sound transfer. The result is a detailed and legendary Martin experience every time you play.

Withdrawal termsDescription
The OM-28 combines comfortable playability, stylistic flexibility, and incomparable organic tone in a fantastic instrument that for nearly 100 years has been a staple of C.F. Martin’s lineup.With its Golden Era X-bracing, it delivers vintage-inspired tone and sustain, while various updates, such as the revised Golden Era neck profile, a thinner fretboard, and a redesigned nut and heel, enhance the OM-28 model’s playability and aesthetics. Martin once again demonstrates that dedication to heritage and high-quality guitar building is key to creating incomparable guitars that inspire excitement every time you open the case.
With the OM-28, Martin has drawn on its precious supply of East Indian rosewood and the extraordinary Sitka spruce that characterizes many of Martin’s western guitars. Nothing beats the sound of solid Sitka spruce and genuine solid rosewood. You will appreciate the crisp, wide tone that the OM-28’s solid East Indian rosewood delivers, and it looks fantastic on a western guitar. The solid Sitka spruce top adds volume, fullness, and smooth overtones. With Sitka spruce and rosewood, you get a well-balanced, resonant guitar across the treble, bass, and midrange.
The OM-28 has the classic orchestra model tone. The bass is solid, while the treble exhibits bell-like clarity that makes melodic playing stand out and sound exceptionally clear. The individual strings are distinct and well-defined, allowing the subtle details of your playing to come through clearly and precisely. A black ebony fretboard and matching nut complete the look.
The latest OM-28 features Martin’s Golden Era Modified Low Oval/High Performance Taper neck profile for greater playing comfort. Technically proficient guitarists will find they can play with greater speed and accuracy, while songwriters will appreciate how comfortable the neck feels after writing songs all night long.
The OM-28’s glued dovetail neck-to-body joint maximizes sound transfer between the body and neck and gives the western guitar greater stability as it ages. The benefits of this construction are evident when you try a Martin OM-28. Chords sound full and even, and melodies take on a sweet, woody tone. Martin’s specially designed Golden Era X-bracing provides greater resonance in the bass range and adds punch and balance to the comfortable orchestra model.
