The Size 0 body produces a focused, balanced, and remarkably articulate acoustic voice - clear highs, controlled bass, and a natural midrange complexity that larger body guitars with more internal air volume cannot replicate at low dynamic levels, making this one of the most satisfying and personally engaging acoustic instruments Martin produces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe solid Adirondack spruce top with aging toner is the tonal heart of this Custom Shop 0-28 - the stiffest and most dynamically capable of all the spruce species, capable of enormous volume headroom, immediate responsiveness, and the kind of powerful projection that Adirondack uniquely delivers even in a compact body. Hand-shaped Golden Era scalloped X-bracing allows the top to respond with maximum sensitivity and resonance across the full dynamic range, producing the enhanced sustain and tonal richness that distinguishes GE bracing from contemporary alternatives. Solid East Indian rosewood back and sides add the lush, complex overtones and deep bass character that makes this tonewood combination one of the most celebrated pairings in fine acoustic guitar making. The GE Modified Low Oval mahogany neck, 24.9\" scale length, 1-3\/4\" bone nut, ebony fingerboard with diamond and square long inlays, ebony bridge with bone saddle, herringbone top inlay and purfling, grained ivoroid binding, faux tortoise pickguard, nickel open-gear tuners, and vintage gloss finish throughout complete a Custom Shop specification of genuine historical authenticity and tonal excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid Adirondack spruce top with aging toner and hand-shaped Golden Era scalloped X-bracing delivers the powerful, dynamically responsive acoustic voice that Adirondack uniquely provides - even in the compact Size 0 body format, with enhanced resonance, sustain, and the tonal richness of GE bracing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid East Indian rosewood back and sides contribute lush, complex overtones, deep bass character, and the harmonic richness that makes this tonewood pairing one of the most celebrated in fine acoustic guitar making.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize 0 body produces a focused, balanced, and articulate acoustic voice with impressive clarity at low dynamic levels - the format of choice for fingerstyle players, recording musicians, and songwriters who value tonal nuance over sheer volume.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGE Modified Low Oval mahogany neck with 24.9\" short scale length, 1-3\/4\" nut, and ebony fingerboard with diamond and square long inlays deliver a comfortable, vintage-inspired playing feel well-suited to the intimate character of the Size 0 format.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHerringbone top inlay and purfling, grained ivoroid binding, ebony bridge, bone saddle, nickel open-gear tuners, and vintage gloss finish throughout reflect the complete Style 28 Custom Shop appointment package in its most historically authentic expression.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Martin Custom Shop 0-28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Size 0, 14-fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop: Solid Adirondack spruce, aging toner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack \u0026amp; sides: Solid East Indian rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBracing: GE scalloped X-brace, hand-shaped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBinding: Grained ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop inlay: Herringbone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosette: Herringbone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Genuine mahogany, GE Modified Low Oval\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard inlays: Diamond and square long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard width at nut: 1-3\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaddle: Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale length: 24.9\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal frets: 20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck joins body at: 14th fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Nickel open-gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: Faux tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop finish: Vintage gloss, aging toner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack \u0026amp; sides finish: Vintage gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck finish: Vintage gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronics: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: Martin Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 Light (MA540T)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Martin hardshell case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: 40\/CS-028\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in: USA (Nazareth, Pennsylvania)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Martin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68196014948573,"sku":"40\/CS-028","price":7999.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/8045\/files\/028_51d2ea55-2606-4bb0-9cb8-8720d0d32c10.png?v=1792374927","url":"https:\/\/www.acousticcentre.com.au\/products\/martin-custom-shop-style-28-0-14-acoustic-guitar","provider":"Acoustic Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
