Herringbone Martin D-28's are the king of flat tops. This 1945 example may be the cleanest of its league. What makes it particularly special is the extremely tight grain of the Adirondack Spruce; perhaps it was a hold out set aside for a D-45 that was never made, right before the switch to Sitka in 1946. The sound that is produced from its tapered bracing is warm and round. It has had a clean neck reset and is setup for bluegrass flat picking (with saddle height to come down). The only notable crack is 5" on the lower treble back (rosewood grain separation); it did not need cleating. If you want a clean herringbone D-28 with some honest playwear, this is it.
