Balanced Rosewood Depth with the Projection of a Longer Scale
The Martin OM-28 combines a solid Spruce top with solid East Indian Rosewood back and sides for a balanced acoustic voice with deep bass, rich overtones and clear trebles. Its 645.2 mm (25.4”) scale adds string tension, helping notes project with a brighter edge and sustain clearly whether you are fingerpicking, flatpicking or strumming.
GE scalloped Spruce X-bracing uses 6.35 mm (1/4”) braces to support the top’s response, while the Ebony bridge, compensated bone saddle and bone pins provide a traditional foundation. Bold Herringbone top inlay, Antique White binding and Faux Tortoise details complete the Style 28 presentation.
The Satin Select Hardwood neck uses a GE Modified Low Oval profile with High-Performance Taper, paired with an Ebony fingerboard and a 44.45 mm (1.75”) nut. Twenty frets and a 14th-fret neck joint complete the familiar playing layout. A Moulded Hardshell Case is included.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this orchestra acoustic guitar is an excellent choice for players who want Rosewood depth without sacrificing treble clarity, with the longer scale adding projection and definition across different playing styles.
