I am a novice player and have two other Matins (000 Jr, and SC-10e), which are wonderful. The D28 is in a class of its own. I know it’s completely different then my other two, but I did not expect the sound quality to be so distinguishable. This guitar is worth every penny.

I looked and looked and waited to get this guitar for a while and I wish I would have pulled the trigger MUCH sooner. This is a great guitar right out of the box and it just keeps getting better. I have been gigging with it for just under six months and the more I play it, the more places I take it the better it sounds. Martin makes an exceptional product, and the quality is unmatched. I love it so much. It is light weight, but has a great sound. I love this guitar, it will be in my family for a LONG LONG time.

The D-28 is the last acoustic guitar I will ever buy. I have been trying for several years to get one and finally I was able to swing it.
It has great tone and shear beauty. It is easy to play and string height set just right.
This is the second purchase from you anc I highly recommend you for ordering, in stock, and shipment.

Wanted this guitar for the last 20 years but resisted the notion of trying to keep up with “the Joneses”. I have a number of decent guitars, but AMS made it so simple to buy and receive, that I could not resist. I was able to compare the available D-28s by view and specs! Weight, wood etc. It was so nice to make that choice. Payment options were incredibly easy to choose from and received it in 3 days. It does not disappoint! The sound is incredible throughout the range. Sustain is longer than anyone would need and the guitar is so easy to play. It arrived perfectly tuned and perfectly set up. If you’ve ever wanted a hand made, all premium wood guitar for yourself, I would go for it! Play what you love and you’re more likely to love to play.

Ams is probably the best place to get an acoustic
I always get guitars that far exceed anything I’ve ever found in a music store
This d28 or the Gibson j50 I bought both tremendous examples of excellent guitars and the payments are flexible more so than other places

Product Review
I'm another older guitar player, singer, and songwriter. Started picking back in the early '70s, so I've owned (and played) multiple guitars over the years. On more than one occasion, I recall setting out, thinking that I'd purchase a Martin, but I always ended up getting something else. Sometimes it was the price; but generally, I just didn't bond with the guitar(s). But not this time. These reimagined D-28s are something special. Great necks, beautiful silked tops, with a clean, woody, open resonance. Powerful, but balanced, excellent for nuanced fingerpicking, but with plenty of headroom for flatpicking and strumming. Simply a very musical instrument, right out of the box. I've waited a long time for the right Martin to come along, and this one is a keeper.

It's beautiful. Plays and sounds so fine. Nothing better,in my opinion, for an acoustic guitar than a Martin. The craftsmanship is superb. Feels great to play. I'm in guitar heaven with my Martin D28.

I was very worried about Martin changing things on the D-28. It may just be this one, and it DEFINITELY is just my preference. But this sounds and plays much better than the one I bought a couple years ago! I am not looking forward to getting old, but I am looking forward to playing this guitar 20 years from now!

I’m not a professional guitar player. I enjoy playing the guitar. The D-28 is the perfect guitar for all guitarist. The action is amazing but the real selling point of this guitar is the tone. This thing sounds awesome. Rather you’re playing bluegrass, country, gospel, or rock the guitar just sounds great. You can’t go wrong with this one.

The gold standard. The King. Martin has reinvented an American classic and the sound has only gotten better. Rich sound that put my old Taylor to shame. Put new Martin Acoustic SP strings on recently and now I know this guitar will be my favorite for life

Since the 1960's, I and several thousand other players, have lusted after the famed Martin D28. (It's pretty much the benchmark for great acoustic instruments.) I finally, just a few months ago, took the plunge here at AMS.
When it arrived I was struck by it's sheer beauty and the clean workmanship from Nazareth, PA. Sadly, I was disappointed as h*** in the sound. I had bought an Epi Masterbilt DR500 years ago (also, @ AMS) and that sucker was so loud right out of the box that I threatened to go out and hunt banjos with it! Compared to the EPI, my new Martin seemed ... timid. Then I played it a little more. And more. I also took it to my luthier for his opinion and a truss rod adjust.
Then I recorded it for the first time with a decent small diaphragm condenser mic and O.M.G!!!
I've never heard such detail or balance from an acoustic instrument - up and down the fretboard. AND - it sounded huge! Needless to say, we're in love. My last acoustic guitar!

Blown away by the neck enhancement and overall build quality. Sound is just unbelievable. Looks perfect with the vintage appointments and finishes it off with even better sound than the previous model. Got a great deal and got to pick out the guitar. What more do you want? Get one :)
