Description

Our listings are different from the rest, because here at Delgado Guitars, every instrument we sell has been hand selected by Manuel Delgado himself. With over 95 years in business, you can trust that the instruments we sell are a cut above the rest. Like all of our instruments, this one has been professionally set up and tuned at Delgado Guitars to meet our standards of intonation and playability.This Martin came to us and needed some TLC to get it back to up to snuff. We did a neck reset, gave it fresh frets, repaired a back crack, and gave it a professional Delgado Guitars set up. Yeah, it's seen some wear, but this trusty D-28 has been reliably performing for over 55 years and we've helped insure that it has a chance to last another 55 years. Believe us- they don't make them like this anymore.
