Martin 00-28VS (Pre-Owned) 2011

The Martin 00-28VS is modeled after its original version, built in 1898. The parlor-style guitar features a smaller "00"-style body and a shorter 24.9"  scale. The end result is incredibly balanced, warm tones. Particularly favored for its string-to-string response, the Martin 00-28VS is a great guitar suiting any style, especially flat-pick playing. There isn’t much that the 00-28VS doesn’t have. Its got a solid bass response with clear trebles; it’s comfortable; it’s easy to play. All around, it’s an excellent guitar.

The guitar is in very good condition, showing minimal signs of wear, the only remark is the small dent on the back of the neck, no cracks, no repairs.
