Martin D-28 With Original Blue Vintage "Steal Me" Case 1973

No sales tax for customers outside California.

Discover the timeless allure of this 1973 Martin D-28 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar, a true gem for musicians and collectors alike.

This example plays perfectly.  The guitar has seen a neck reset and refret, which really dialed it in.  The work was very professionally done.  The saddle is high and the action is spot on.  There is an undersaddle pickup, the brand and model is unknown.  

There are no cracks or repairs other than the neck reset and refret.  This is a really nice example!

Renowned for its rich, booming tone and exceptional craftsmanship, this vintage Martin D-28 features a solid spruce top, Indian rosewood back and sides, and a mahogany neck, delivering the iconic sound that has defined generations of music.

Included is the original blue "Steal Me" thermoplastic case, a rare and nostalgic piece from the early 1970s, complete with the distinctive Martin logo.

This guitar has been professionally inspected, showing normal wear for its age, with minor dings and lacquer checking that add to its authentic vintage character.

Perfect for flatpicking or strumming, this Martin D-28 offers unparalleled playability and tonal depth.

Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of musical history—ideal for performers, collectors, or anyone seeking a legendary acoustic experience. Ships securely with full insurance.
