| I have a Martin 000-28 that was custom made last year. It has a sunburst finish and comes with a Fishman Ellipse Aura pickup installed. Also comes with all software to connect the pickup to your computer and change presets within the pickup. Comes with the original hardshell case. A beautiful guitar. I am wanting to trade to an Emmons D-10 or something compatible. Let me know what you have. Thanks so much! |

| Hello Stephen! When I say custom, I mean this is not a regular production model. Due to mainly the color, but it also has forward shifted bracing. Which I am told, that it gives it a much deeper tone. With that being said, I could have gotten one with a regular non sunburst top pretty quickly, but I had to wait a couple months for this guitar. I was in direct contact with the Martin company throughout the whole build. I hope this helps and answers your question. Thanks! |

| Two of my Martins, a D-18 and an HD-28, have sunburst tops. Martin is about to figure out how to paint a decent 'burst. Yours is a beauty, for sure. |

Usually a 'Custom Shop' guitar will carry an in-sequence serial # but not a model #.
I have a 2004 000-28 which I love. I ordered it because I didn't like certain things about the standard production 000-28 - too-modern machines, black pickguard, and the bright gold maker's name on the headstock. Martin advised me to start with the Eric Clapton model as a 'platform' but to opt for none of the odds and ends that identified it as an EC (I hate the notion of 'signature' guitars.
Mine is a delight and the only thing about it I don't like is that it doesn't have '000-28' on the heel-block. Maybe this one doesn't either.

Hello, everyone thank you for all of your replies. This guitar has been sold off the forum and needs to be closed. Thank you all. Now I am on the search for the right steel. Here we go!   |
