Martin D12-28 Standard (Pre-owned) 2013

C.F. Martin & Co. D12-28 Standard (2013) – Rosewood 12-String Dreadnought – Good Condition

This Martin D12-28 Standard from 2013 — also searched as Martin D1228, Martin D12 28, Martin D-12-28, used Martin D12-28, or second-hand Martin 12-string acoustic — is a classic rosewood 12-string dreadnought, combining Martin’s traditional Style 28 construction with the rich, shimmering sound of twelve strings.

Built with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, the D12-28 produces a full, resonant acoustic voice with deep bass, rich harmonic overtones, warm mids and sparkling trebles. The six pairs of strings create a beautiful natural chorus effect, giving chords exceptional depth and presence.

The full-size dreadnought body provides strong projection and acoustic volume, making this guitar particularly well suited to folk, rock, country, singer-songwriter accompaniment and studio recording. Its rich and expansive sound works beautifully for both rhythmic strumming and delicate arpeggios.

The 24.9” short scale provides a comfortable playing feel with slightly lower string tension than a long-scale dreadnought. Combined with its wider 12-string neck, the guitar offers good space for chord playing and fingerpicking.

Traditional Style 28 appointments include an ebony fingerboard and bridge, classic dot fingerboard inlays, white binding, a black pickguard and understated Martin styling.

This 2013 Martin D12-28 is in good condition, showing signs of normal use consistent with its age. It is an attractive choice for players looking for the full, harmonically rich character of a traditional Martin rosewood 12-string.
