This guitar has been played well but still has more playing in to be done! Great condition overall for its age. Responsive low end true to the desirable rosewood qualities, top is in great condition too.
The D-28 is one of the most respected of all Martin models, and this very easy playing and fantastic sounding example is a prime example of why. It offers a powerful full-range sound and is more even sounding across the fingerboard than some while still maintaining the powerful bass response D-28's are prized for. This guitar is perfectly suited to period styles including purely acoustic Bluegrass of folk, acoustic/electric Honky Tonk or any more modern playing applications. This is a gem of an early "Folk-era" D-28, a smooth player and simply classically excellent flat-top guitar.
Has noticeable buckle rash.

Well Garrick you’ve delivered once again mate. This “0” size “Country Boy” by Dana Bourgeois is just incredible. Very elegant in design,nothing superfluous just master grade materials and a deep appreciation of all possibilities resulting in a strong, clean and uncluttered sound from a very user friendly instrument. Tight but loose at the same time, wonderful.
Thanks Garrick and Co.
Thanks Studio 1 Vintage Guitar’s.

Communication was great, delivery was super quick and packed so well. The guitar is everything I thought it would be. I have a 74 D50R which is quite a chunky neck, still lovely to play though, this one has a slimmer neck which suits my hands much better. Love the feel, sound and the look of this guitar. I would buy from these guys again if anything came up that tickled my fancy. I'm a very keen Guild collector, so I'm super happy I have this one now.
Wow probably the best guitar I have ever played. Garrick found this for me after some lengthy conversations and he delivered and some. This is second guitar from these guys and they rock for sure. Always so helpful and quick to answer any questions. Words can’t express how impressive these guys are. Lifetime customer.
Well you guy’s have done it again, the Pre War HD Brazilian is a dream come true for me.Living in Sydney and dealing with companies overseas can sometimes be difficult but not with you guy’s, not to forget the wonderful Betsie who is just a gem and so helpful.Garrick, Nick and Betsie combine to create a quick, reliable and friendly service. An absolute pleasure to deal with and what amazing instruments you have in stock, a real blessing for guitar enthusiast’s worldwide. I look forward to to my next purchase from you and yes I do have my eye on another guitar already.
Kindest regards,
Paul, Sydney Australia.
I thoroughly enjoyed my buying experience through Studio 1 vintage. Nick is an amazing guy full of the information that I was looking for to make the proper decision on the right guitar for me. He’s patient, professional, and very talented musician. How I found your company was through YouTube and the great videos and demonstration’s that he does. I’m looking forward to doing future business with you guys all the best. Cheers.!!
