Golden era bracing for vintage tone
The Martin D-28 Satin Refreshed features Golden Era scalloped bracing, offering a vintage-inspired tone with enhanced sustain and resonance. This forward-shifted X-brace design allows the spruce top to vibrate more freely, producing a rich, open sound that improves with age. Players can enjoy the depth and warmth reminiscent of classic Martin guitars from the late 1920s to the early 1940s, making it ideal for delivering powerful projection and balanced tonal clarity.
Satin finish for enhanced resonance
The satin finish on the D-28 Satin Refreshed not only offers a sleek, understated aesthetic but also contributes to the guitar's superior tonal quality. This thin, smooth finish allows the tonewoods to resonate more naturally compared to thicker gloss finishes, resulting in a warmer and more responsive sound. Additionally, the satin texture provides a comfortable feel during extended playing sessions, making it a practical and stylish choice that'll give a vintage edge to your playing.
Premium tonewoods for balanced sound
Constructed with East Indian rosewood back and sides and a solid spruce top, the D-28 Satin Refreshed delivers a rich, well-balanced tone. The rosewood provides deep lows and clear highs, while the spruce top adds brightness and articulation. This combination of premium tonewoods ensures a full, dynamic sound that suits a variety of playing styles, from delicate fingerpicking to bold strumming, making it a versatile instrument that gives you access to any genre you desire.
Bone bridge pins for improved resonance
The inclusion of bone bridge pins on the D-28 Satin Refreshed enhances the guitar's tonal performance by improving vibration transfer between the strings and the soundboard. This results in greater sustain, richer overtones, and a more pronounced overall resonance. Combined with the GE modern belly bridge, these high-quality components ensure that every note played is delivered with clarity and depth, elevating the guitar's sound and responsiveness.
