The 000-28 Modern Deluxe is where Martin’s legendary craftsmanship shakes hands with cutting-edge innovation. It’s got that timeless Martin sound everyone loves, but with clever upgrades that make it even more of a joy to play and own.

Decades of tone, right out of the case

A Spruce Vintage Tone System (VTS) top and Golden Era–style Adirondack Spruce X-bracing recreate the warm, open character of a nearly century-old Martin. Add natural protein glue and a lightweight carbon-fibre bridge plate for extra clarity and sustain, while Liquidmetal bridge pins bounce energy back into the strings for more punch and volume.

Play smooth, look sharp

EVO gold frets and a subtly asymmetrical neck make every position feel smooth and effortless. And with European flamed-maple binding, Waverly gold open-gear tuners and a 1933-style pearl logo, this acoustic looks every bit as classy as it sounds.

000 body size

The 000 body size gives you a beautifully balanced tone. We’re talking focused mids, crisp highs and a responsive dynamic range — perfect for fingerstyle, recording or just losing yourself in the music.

Key Features

  • 000-14 Fret body size: Compact and comfortable, this size offers a gorgeous tone that’s ideal for fingerstyle players and singer-songwriters. It’s easy to hold for long sessions and sounds clear without overpowering bass.
  • East Indian Rosewood back & sides: Rich, resonant lows and sparkling highs come together for that classic Martin depth where every chord blooms beautifully.
  • Spruce with VTS top: The Vintage Tone System ages the Spruce top to mimic decades of natural playing, giving you that broken-in, open tone straight out of the case.
  • Vintage Deluxe with High-Performance Taper neck: A slightly asymmetrical profile that feels natural in your hand, reducing fatigue and making complex chords easier to play.
  • Liquidmetal bridge pins: These clever pins reflect energy back into the strings, boosting volume and sustain. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference in tone and projection.
  • Ply hardshell case included: Keeps your guitar safe from knocks and bumps, whether you’re gigging or storing it at home.

Acoustic Guitars

Acoustic guitars produce their sound naturally through the vibration of the strings and body, offering a direct and expressive playing experience. They come in a wide range of styles, including steel string and classical designs, each with its own feel and tonal character. Body shape, wood choice, and construction all influence warmth, projection, and balance, making acoustics suitable for everything from gentle fingerstyle to confident strumming. Whether used for songwriting, practice, or performance, acoustic guitars provide a simple, honest connection between the player and the music.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Steel String Acoustic Guitars

Steel string acoustic guitars are known for their bright, clear tone and strong projection, making them a popular choice for strumming, fingerpicking, and songwriting. Using steel strings gives them more tension and volume than classical guitars, resulting in a sound that cuts through well whether played solo or alongside other instruments. They come in a range of body shapes and sizes, each influencing balance, resonance, and comfort. From delicate fingerstyle passages to powerful rhythm playing, steel string acoustics are versatile instruments that respond well to dynamics and playing style, both at home and on stage.
