Player’s Perspective
This guitar is a modern installment of the famously rich-toned HD-28. A true re-creation of a classic, this guitar’s homage to the past is novel rather than nostalgic. It has that classic old-school dreadnought response that can’t be faked. There’s a rich woody snap to the sound in all registers, and the low-end is especially delicious. In fact, this is one of the models that made dreadnoughts notorious for their incredible bass response. Strum a big open position chord, and you can feel the sound in your gut in a way that usually only happens with some type of amplification. The neck is hefty but quite comfortable. Breakneck bluegrass, down home blues, open position folk strumming, country – the best players from all walks of life have used this guitar because it creates music and leaves the rest up to you.
Special Features
The HD-28E Retro is a modern re-creation of the classic herringbone Dreadnought. Channeling legends like Hank Williams, this guitar carries a distinct prestige that can only come from the Retro Series collection.
This is an iconic instrument that’s every bit as musical, playable and relevant as ever. Perfect for the Martin aficionado or simply anyone on the hunt for the real deal dreadnought sound.
