Martin Custom Shop 28 Style 00 Adirondack/Wild Grain East Indian Rosewood w/case 3056533

Built exclusively through the Martin Custom Shop for Tone Shop Guitars, this custom 28 Style 00 blends premium tonewoods, vintage-inspired appointments, and the intimate responsiveness that makes the 00 platform so beloved among fingerstyle players and recording musicians. Featuring a solid Adirondack spruce top paired with visually striking wild grain East Indian rosewood back and sides, this Custom Shop model delivers exceptional balance, harmonic richness, and articulation in a comfortable Grand Concert body.

The smaller 00 body shape offers focused projection and immediate responsiveness while maintaining impressive warmth and sustain. Golden Era hand-shaped scalloped Adirondack bracing enhances openness and dynamic range, while the premium wild grain East Indian rosewood contributes deep overtones, shimmering highs, and rich low-end complexity. The result is a refined instrument equally suited for delicate fingerstyle work, vocal accompaniment, and nuanced studio performance.

Finished with classic Style 28 appointments including bold herringbone top trim, Diamonds & Squares Long fingerboard inlays, ebony fingerboard and bridge, and an aging toner top, this Custom Shop build combines timeless Martin aesthetics with carefully selected premium materials.
