This Martin D-28 Billy Strings model takes inspiration from Billy’s cherished 1940 D-28, blending vintage aesthetics with modern enhancements for his fast, intricate playing style. It features a unique 25" scale length for reduced string tension, a slightly wider nut, and a modified low oval satin neck for smooth, agile movement. Solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, a spruce top, and bold herringbone trim bring classic Martin tone and style. Nickel enclosed gear tuners, an ebony fingerboard with abalone inlays, and antique white binding complete the look. Includes a custom paper label with Billy’s pre-printed signature and a hardshell case.
The exact appearance of this item may vary.
