Martin D-28 Billy Strings Features:
- Based on Billy’s prewar Martin D-28 and tweaked with a choice set of performance-focused appointments
- Shortened 25-in. scale length supplies reduced tension and a more bend-friendly feel
- Spruce top supported with forward-shifted Golden Era scalloped bracing ensures responsive performance and a deep, rich voice
- East Indian rosewood back and sides deliver the traditional Martin bass boom and crisp, harmonic-rich trebles
- Big-bodied Martin dreadnought design ensures ample, chest-thumping bass response
- Easy-playing genuine mahogany neck, capped with a slick satin finish and carved into Martin’s GE Modified Low Oval neck profile
- Ebony fingerboard complete with old-school diamond and square inlays
- Slimmed-down 1.72-in. nut width keeps the strings a bit closer together to facilitate rapid-fire bluegrass runs
- Rock-solid nickel enclosed-gear tuners
- Premium appointments include a bone nut, bone saddle, and ebony bridge
- High-class herringbone trim around the guitar imbues it with a touch of prewar charm
