Martin Standard Series | 000-28E *2025 Spec*

The Martin 000-28E is a UK-exclusive version of the iconic 000-28, offering the same beautifully balanced Auditorium voice with the addition of a factory-fitted Fishman Thinline Gold+ pickup system. Built in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, it forms part of Martin's refreshed Standard Series, combining timeless tonewoods with modern refinements in comfort, playability and vintage-inspired voicing.

The 00028 pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, producing a rich, resonant tone with deep bass, sparkling trebles and a warm, complex midrange. The Auditorium body size delivers exceptional balance across all six strings, making it equally suited to fingerstyle, flatpicking and light to medium strumming. GE Sitka spruce bracing, inspired by the Modern Deluxe Series, adds vintage style responsiveness, sustain and dynamic nuance.

A 24.9" scale length gives the 00028E a relaxed, expressive feel, while the satin neck with a GE Modified Low Oval profile and High-Performance Taper offers smooth, modern playability. The ebony fingerboard features abalone diamond and square inlays, and antique white binding with bold herringbone top trim completes the classic Martin aesthetic.

What sets the 00028E apart is its factory-installed Fishman Thinline Gold+ pickup, available only on this UK-exclusive model. Designed to preserve the guitar's natural acoustic character, it delivers a clear, dynamic and authentic amplified tone that suits stage, studio and live performance environments without altering the instrument's core voice.

Finished in high-gloss nitrocellulose and supplied with a hardshell case, the 00028E is a versatile, elegant and stage-ready take on one of Martin's most beloved designs.
