Martin Guitar Build Overview
Martin D-28 (1971) One Owner #271921
This guitar was brought in by the son of the original owner. He lost his father over 3 decades ago and the guitar has been living in one closet to the next since he passed. The body and neck are in extremely good condition. The guitar is playable, but the saddle is through and the action is high up the neck.
There is light haze on the finish. I have not attempted to clean up the guitar in anyway. I will leave that decision to the next guardian.
