HD28 CUSTOM LIMITED

●There is no shortage of excellent acoustic guitars. However, the loneliness that can be felt with new products is probably because the nuances of their design and sound do not have the elegance, sophistication, and history of guitars that were once considered masterpieces. As long as it is said to be an excellent guitar, the body shape and quality of the materials, which have a huge influence on the sound, have been given the necessary and proper consideration. It lacks beauty, style, and elegance.

We, the project team, believe that demanding class and elegance not only in the sound but also in the design is not at all out of the essence of musical instruments; in fact, it is even natural. Modern rational systems are losing the ability to perfectly meet these demands, and even if they do have the ability to do so, they have lost the will to tackle them head-on due to increased costs and difficulty in selling. I think so. Not everything old is good, and not everything new is bad. In the flow of history connected to communication, I believe that good things are born from a pure attitude. I am confident that this is an acoustic guitar that is worthy of being called a masterpiece, created through close contact between the HD28 CUSTOM LIMITED & TOKAI project team and Martin. A design full of elegance that reproduces GOOD OLD SOUND in modern times and even surpasses beautiful sound. Once polished, this is a guitar that should only be played by guitarists with a sense of style.

The basics are truly beautiful HD28 CUSTOM LIMITED HD28 CUSTOM LIMITED has been completely reprinted by the craftsmen who once produced the Prewar D28. As you know, the Prewar D28 is a masterpiece produced by Martin between 1934 and 1944. Despite its simple beauty, it was a guitar that had the ability to meet all the needs of guitarists. After close contact between the TOKAI project team and Martin, production finally began, and of course craftwork was led by veterans who had previously worked on Prewar D28. Beyond history, Prewar D28s HD28 CUSTOM LIMITED has appeared here again. This guitar is a complete reproduction model that can only be delivered by Tokai Musical Instruments worldwide. Moreover, only a few dozen films were scheduled to be produced from 1981 to 1982.

●Square headstock & small button pegs:
The headstock, which is a little slimmer than the current Martin, is the best match for the small button pegs, and its elegance and solid construction give it a strong sense of tradition.

●Herringbone & Diamond Inlay: The herringbone and diamond inlay, which was the biggest feature of Priewar D28, has been completely reproduced. Guitarists are sure to be captivated by its modest yet elegant beauty.

●Tortoise shell type pickguard & long slot bridge, Tortoise shell dot pin & strap button:
The pickguard is a Tortoise shell type. Tortoise shell-type dots are also placed on the bridge pins and strap buttons, creating a vintage mood. Also a complete reproduction of the long slot bridge Prewar D28.

●Binding & Back Stripe:
The point binding uses iPoroid, and when you hold it in your hand, you can feel its wonderful atmosphere.The beauty of the zigzag back stripe is unparalleled, and the craftsman's enthusiasm and attention to detail are evident. I want you to feel confident.

●Plus plate:
The plus plate with the model name and serial number engraved on it proves that it is a complete reproduction LIMITED MODEL of Prewar D28. Anyone who plays this guitar will feel Martin's warm affection.
