A premium guitar released in the 1980s as a joint project between Martin and his Japanese distributor Tokai Musical Instruments.
Martin / 1982 HD-28 Custom Pre War Reissue
The HD-28 was released in 1976 as Martin’s herringbone model D-28.
Time passed and in the 1980s, Martin and his Japanese distributor Tokai Musical Instruments jointly planned and released the HD-28 Custom, which was created with great attention to detail to recreate the Priwar D-28. Pre War Reissue.
In addition to the adoption of scalloped X bracing and long saddle,
In terms of decoration, the essence of the Priwar D-28 is incorporated, such as the ivoroid binding and tortoiseshell pattern pickguard.
At that time, distribution was limited to only a few dozen copies in Japan.
It’s miraculous that you found your way to our shop again.
What’s surprising is that this guitar is a first owner item. It has been cherished by just one user for over 40 years.
It is not easy to use it in modern times, but it is also worth noting that it came with a contact pickup called Morris CP-2, which was an option at the time.
Thanks to the care it has taken, it is in very good condition with no cracks.
There are not many chances to meet D-28 with a story like this.
