Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
SP Luthier Notes: Reglue the fingerboard to the neck at the 1st fret. A few minor dents present on the top and fingerboard of the guitar were filled, color matched and refinished.
The Martin 000-28 Norman Blake is a distinctive interpretation of one of Martin's most beloved body styles, designed in collaboration with the legendary flatpicker and songwriter. Its spruce top and rosewood body deliver a rich, articulate voice with remarkable balance, warmth, and clarity, while the slotted headstock adds a touch of vintage charm and responsiveness. Ebony appointments and abalone inlays elevate the instrument's elegant aesthetic without overshadowing its musical purpose. Comfortable, expressive, and deeply rooted in traditional acoustic craftsmanship, the 000-28 Norman Blake is a compelling guitar for players seeking a unique Martin with both collector appeal and exceptional musicality.
